Re: windows mail error

I assume your problem is with receiving, since the error message you
supplied pertains to receiving.
Ports 25 and 587 do not affect receiving, since they are for sending.

The error message is difficult to evaluate since you X'd out part of
the server name. Perhaps the error is in the 'xxxxxxxx' part of the
server name.
