I can receive email but cannot send

[Sal Catalano]

I can no longer send out email I can receive but not send. For some reason
Outlook just started showing the error sign when ever I try to send an
email. Help

What is that error sign? What does it say, exactly? Since the error is the
key to what the problem is and then resolving it, it's important to know.

I also am having the same problem:

It starts with the "log onto network" page, then if you hit ok it comes
back. But if you hit cancle you get this error.
Error: log on to incomming mail server (POP3): Your e-mail server rejected
your log in. Verfy your user name and password in your account properties.
Under tools, click Email Accounts.
The server responded; -ERR [AUTH] invalid user/password

I have tried changing my user name & password. I have gone to "more
settings and verified everything and nothing works.

Is this for a hotmail account?

You do not know if you have the same problem because Sal never provided
any details. Do NOT hijack someone else's post. Start your own new
thread.

Extremely few details to go on. In fact, the only detail is an error
"sign" shows up. Which version of Outlook? Which version of Windows?
What is the full text of the error message? What type of e-mail
account?


--- Posting Hints ---

ALWAYS REVIEW your message before submitting it. You want someone OTHER
than yourself to understand your post. Also remember that no one here
is looking over your shoulder to see at what you are pointing. If you
don't well explain your situation by providing the details that you
already know, don't expect others to know what is your situation.
Explain YOUR computing environment and just what actions you take to
reproduce the problem.

Often you get just one chance per potential respondent to elicit a reply
from them. If they skip your post because you gave them nothing to go
on (no details, no versions, no OS, no context) then they will usually
move on to the next post and never return to yours.

Regarding error or status messages:
- Do NOT omit the message.
- Do NOT describe the message.
- Do NOT summarize the message.
- Do NOT paraphrase the message.
- Do NOT truncate the message.
- Do show the ENTIRE message (but munge or star out personal info,
like your username in an e-mail address but not the domain).
- Provide sufficient context on when the error occurs or how to
reproduce it.
