I can receive email but cannot send it.
Yesterday I tried to send emails and I got an error message. I could receive
but not send. I tried all the usual things several times: turned off the computer, turned off my router and cable modem, checked all my connections, started fresh. The problem persists. Is this a problem with Outlook? |

I've go the SAME problem. My error number is 554, and ISP
says it is not them. Tried the same things, and also deleted and re-added my accounts, and added updates. Nothing worked (yet). Any ideas? -----Original Message----- Yesterday I tried to send emails and I got an error message. I could receive but not send.

Since you didn't think it was important to state your Outlook version, no one can tell you exactly how to do that. -- Brian Tillman |

Is an SMTP server address 3 numbers.3numbers.3numbers.2numbers? If so, both
my POP3 and STMP have always been the same. "Shah" wrote: CHECK your SMTP server address.. It sounds ike you have entered a WRONG SMTP server address...

Is an SMTP server address 3 numbers.3numbers.3numbers.2numbers? No. It can be xx.x.x.xxx as well. Each octet can be in the range 0 to 255 (with some exceptions). It can also be a fully qualified domain name, like smtp.somemachine.somedomain.com or .net. In fact, a FQDN is much much more common than a specific IP address. The latter will always work. The former, though, may not. Suppose, for example, your ISP's SMTP router is named "smtp.bigdomain.net" and, up until now, the IP address for that machine has been 62.1.16.4. Now suppose that your ISP wishes to use a bigger, faster machine for mail routing. One thing they might do is to modify their Domain Name Service (the service that maps FQDNs to IP addresses) to make "smtp.bigdomain.net" point to the IP address of that bigger, faster machine, say 62.1.16.10. If you're using a FQDN in your account settings, your email keeps working. If you have the IP address of the old machine in your account settings, your mail stops working and you'll have no idea why. -- Brian Tillman |
