Vista - Protocol SMTP, Port - Can't send messages

does anyone know what this means. I don;t understand why my emails in MS
Outlook are not sent out.


The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'Re: Website', Account:
'mail.angellakes.org', Server: 'mail.angellakes.org', Protocol: SMTP, Port:
25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

meant for such problems, such as:

microsoft.public.outlook.general

Does your connection to that server cross over from one internet provider's
equipment to another's before it reaches the server? If so, such
connections
to port 25 are likely to be blocked to cause trouble for spammers, and you
need to ask angellakes.org if their outgoing mail server listens for
outgoing
mail on any port other than port 25, and if so, where to find the details of
switching to the other port. Just trying all the ports is a very slow way
to
find out, since there are about 65,000 ports available and few email
providers
have set their outgoing mail servers to listen for outgoing mail on more
than a
few of them.

That does not look like an Outlook error message.
It looks like a Windows Mail error message.

Angellakes.org is not an ISP. Therefore, your real ISP will block
any attempt to use an external SMTP server on port 25.
This anti-spammer policy is explained here:

I can give you some workarounds, but I will need to know if you
use a laptop away from home, or whether this problem occurs
on a stationary PC.
