Not sending from certain accounts while at work

[maltberg]

This is driving me crazy!! I have 5 e-mail accounts that are set up in
Outlook 2003, they are work without fail while I'm using my wireless
connection at home.

I bring my laptop to work and connect to the internet using their ISP and
only ONE of my account will send. I can receive on all of the accounts, but
not send.

I would appreciate ANY suggestions that are out there. I have Norton
Internet Security 2006 - I have tried disabling that and it doesn't make a
difference, so I'm assuming that isn't my problem.

Thank you for taking the time to help me with this!

1) Make sure your work allows outgoing mail on port 25 (probably do).

2) Make sure you check the block ("more settings" | "outgoing server" tab)
in your OL account config that says "My outgoing server requries
authentication" (use the same credentials as my receiving account).

Try again.

Thank you for the tips. I got SO frustrated with this today, I was doing
some research on-line and found that a lot of ISP's are implementing "port 25
blocking" to reduce the amound of spam...

Anyway, I called the ISP for my office and I had to set my outgoing mail
server to the ISP's outgoing mail server. That's an interesting "tid bit"
don't you think?

Again, thank you for taking the time to help me out. I really appreciate
it. I hope this response helps someone else in the future.
