Take a look at:

I would also try to telnet to port 25 of the mail server from your
workstation. Mindspring was blocking outbound SMTP requiring you to use
their SMTP server. Set your OE to their server for the SMTP portion.

Subject: [IMail Forum] sending email from Outlook Express 5
> Perhaps someone can help on this one. I have set up Windows 98 with
Outlook Express 5 at my house. Yesterday, I was receiveing AND sending
email to my accounts on my company's iMail server -- no problem. My
connection is through Mindspring. Tonight, I can still receive email from
my accounts, but when OE5 tries to send mail out, the error comes back:
>
> The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'bob', Server:
'mail.sounddata.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket
Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
>
> I have checked on Ipswitch's and Microsoft's sites for info. There was
one on Microsoft's that had this very error, but it talked about Dr. Soloman
being the cause, but I don't have Dr. Soloman or any anti-virus running
right now -- this system is just coming online. There was also another KB
that indicated that the SSL checkbox might get confused and that you needed
to make sure it was unchecked, exit OE and then restart. I checked it,
exited, restarted, unchecked it, exited, restarted but it still won't send.

> By the way, all accounts that I have setup on this machine (except my
Mindspring address) are having this problem -- which means I'm not able to
respond to business mail here.
