I can no longer send emails from 3 of my 4 email accounts using Windows Mail.
I receive the following message.

The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'test', Account: 'Gina
ODS', Server: 'smpt.CityMax.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 587, Secure(SSL): No,
Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Comcast suggest using port 587, my web store host says to use 25
I have tried using port 25, 587, 110 80 and every other configuration from
this site, comcast & citymax

Can anyone please help.

I too am experiencing socket error 10060 and error number 0x800CCC0E and
error number 0x800CCC0D. I have spoken with my ISP and they have determined
it is not them, I have removed my Norton Internet Security and the problem
remains and it is now recommended that it is a Microsoft problem. Several
posts with this same problem. Microsoft what next?

Ordinarily you'd get "No such host" for smPT.citymax.com but I see that
CityMax has aliased it to smTP.citymax.com. Nice touch.

I assume your Internet connection is being obtained from Comcast.
In order to get this to work, make the following changes:

1. In Windows Mail go to Tools, Accounts, select the Gina ODS account,
click Properties, Servers. Change the name of the outgoing (SMTP)
server to smtp.comcast.net. Do not change the incoming server. Also,
make sure that the "My server requires authentication" option is checked.
Click the adjacent "Settings" button. Select "Log on using"
then enter your Comcast username and password. Click OK.

2. Go to the Advanced tab and verify that the port number for the
outgoing (SMTP) server is still 587. Click OK. Try sending.

After you uninstalled Norton antivirus, did you follow that up with their
special removal tool:
http://service1.symantec.com/Support...05033108162039

If the problem continues, right-click on your error message, copy, then paste it
into a reply here.
We can't do much troubleshooting without the complete error message.

I also am now dealing with this irritating problem. I experienced this
one time before, about a year ago, and my webhosting guys suggested I
switch the port from 25 to 26, or 26 to 25, can't remember, and that
immediately worked.

Now it is not working. Are there other magical port #'s I can try,
because I have done a few, to no avail this time. I have tons of replies
that are stuck.

This is my exact error message it gives, since last night, and it
continues to receive e-mails no problem somehow, just can't send.

An unknown error has occurred. Subject ' Appt Reminder....',
Account: 'mail.lilkids.com', Server: 'mail.lilkids.com', Protocol: SMTP,
Port: 26, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0B

Thanks Peter, however it didn't work. I received your e-mail but when I
changed the port to that #, I ended up with this message:

THE CONNECTION TO THE SERVER HAS FAILED. ACCOUNT: 'MAIL.LILKIDS.COM',
SERVER: 'MAIL.LILKIDS.COM', PROTOCOL: SMTP, PORT: 587, SECURE(SSL): NO,
SOCKET ERROR: 10060, ERROR NUMBER: 0X800CCC0E

I wonder if A1webserver is having a problem. That's my host for the
website, but the website is up as normal. However the guys there have
not responded to my e-mails from this morning asking for help. I know
there's nothing wrong with my CPU.
Is it my Outlook Express that is messed up, or the server? Very
frustrating past 20 hours.
