Windows Vista mail - Can't send mail
That type of error is often caused by interference from a non-
compatible antivirus program. Which antivirus are you running? As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off, although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects. In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled. If turning off the email scanning function does not resolve your problem, consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to suffering bad effects from overly intrusive antivirus programs. http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons explained he http://thundercloud.net/infoave/tuto...ning/index.htm -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "srbolden" wrote in message ... I'm also getting an error message when I try to send mail. It was working earlier today. I get "Unknown error has occurred" UID store completed. How do I fix this error? Anyone? -- srbolden |

Windows Vista mail - Can't send mail
Any error message?
Go to Tools, Options, Security, uncheck "Do not allow attachments..." and uncheck "Block images..." If no improvement, which antivirus are you running? -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Dodee" wrote in message ... I am new to Vista I can't send attachments nor pictures in an email. I could use some help as well. |

Windows Vista mail - Can't send mail
Hello SIW2.... I was with SBC Global when they were purchased and then my services were under AT&T Yahoo with me still keeping my sbcglobal domain name. The last time this happened...can't send email....it was Symantec Antivirus or the Internet Security Suite. I then installed the MS OneCare for backups, virus protection, and such as that. It's been working really great up until Monday or Tuesday of this week. I don't know if any updates were pushed from Microsoft on that date, but I have my machine to check for updates at 3AM and apply them. My logic, right or wrong, was that IF the security/virus software was by Microsoft and my operating system was by Microsoft AND my email software was by Microsoft? How could I go wrong. Been really nice up until now. Instead of guessing....is there any logging and debugging that I can turn on to see what's happening? -- sawdustar |

Armin Saez PD: Los tildes se han suprimido intencionalmente. "Gary VanderMolen" escribió en el mensaje ... Can you do a trial uninstall of your antivirus? Presumably you can always reinstall it if there is no difference. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "sawdustar" wrote in message ... OK...so I installed the Windows Live mail and all it's "stuff". Now I just get a different looking error. I can still receive mail messages just fine......just can NOT send. Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.

Hi, Gary's advice is sound, of course. You may be concerned that you (or more likely someone else using your machine, e.g. your kids ) may absently mindedly open an attachment in your email program. In that case, try using an antivirus that is less likely to interfere - Avast free home edition is a good choice. 'www.avast.com' (http://www.avast.com) Hope this helps SIW2 -- SIW2 |

Windows Vista mail - Can't send mail
Thanks for your report.
It never ceases to amaze me how both McAfee and Norton leave so much crud behind when uninstalled that they still gum up Windows Mail! I don't trust companies that can't even write a successful uninstall module for their software. -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Armin Saez" wrote in message ...

Windows Vista mail - Can't send mail
You just gave me the clue I needed. You are not using the
correct mail servers for Yahoo's AT&T/SBC customers. Change the SMTP server to smtp.att.yahoo.com, and the POP3 server to pop.att.yahoo.com. Your other settings are correct, but for future reference, the complete settings are documented he http://helpme.att.net/article.php?item=10707 -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "sawdustar" wrote in message ...
