need help with outgoing emails

Just like with Norton, or McAfee, Trend can work fine for months and
possibly years. What happens is an update from Trend screws things up.

IMHO, you would be better off if you got rid of Trend all together and used
one of these.

I would suggest either Avast, (freeware), or NOD32, (not free).

In the case of Avast, choose Custom Installation and under Resident
Protection, uncheck: Internet Mail and Outlook/Exchange.

Avast:
http://www.avast.com/eng/download-avast-home.html

NOD32:
http://www.eset.com/

Install /any/ AV in custom mode and always uncheck your e-mail scanning
options.

I have used Avast (freeware) for some time and cannot think of a bad thing
to say about the program.

you might be on the right track with the latest version of trend, thats
what

then
cause this problem.

Don't describe an error. Don't paraphrase or summarize an error
message. Copy-n-paste it exactly as it appears or transcribe it
verbatim.

Email scanning should be turned off in any anti-virus. Also exclude EML
files from the scan. It provides no protection not provided by the
regular
resident protection.
Besides that, McAfee and Norton are not compatible with Windows Mail and
Outlook Express and should be uninstalled. The latest version of Trend's
anti-virus seems to be causing problems too.

Could be a new update to Trend or it could be that you just didn't get an
email that made it mess up until now.

bruce,
hate to throw a wrinkle into the problem but i uninstalled trend, system has
no virus software at all and my oe6 will not allow anything to be sent(a test
message to myself) it puts it right away in the outbox folder and gives me
the following error message:
The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.comcast.net',
Server: 'smtp.comcast.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket
Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
funny thing is I get emails though from others.
what do you think I need to do now?

And this is a different error message than you posted in a reply to
Vanguard.

You say you get mail from others, but that is an incoming POP3 issue, and
your problem is an outgoing SMTP issue.

Check your account settings. Specifically: My server requires
authentication, and try changing port 25 to 587.

So is the error message going to remain a secret?

Don't describe an error. Don't paraphrase or summarize an error

Email scanning should be turned off in any anti-virus. Also exclude
EML
files from the scan. It provides no protection not provided by the
regular
resident protection.
Besides that, McAfee and Norton are not compatible with Windows Mail
and
Outlook Express and should be uninstalled. The latest version of
Trend's
anti-virus seems to be causing problems too.
