| | SMTP server not responding When I send an email with attached pictures or movies, I get this message: "Your SMTP server has not responded in 60 seconds. Would you like to wait another 60 secondes for the server to respond?" I have to hit that 'wait' button over and over for nearly an hour before the message leaves my outbox. I have Roadrunner service. Acct: pop-server.new.rr.com Server: smtp-server.new.rr.com |

| | Re: SMTP server not responding How large is the attachment? Make sure you are not exceeding the limit set by your ISP. Another reason for a server time-out is your antivirus program. As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off, although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects. If turning off your antivirus 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 here: http://thundercloud.net/infoave/tuto...ning/index.htm -- Gary VanderMolen, MS-MVP (Mail) "Tim" <Tim@xxxxxx> wrote in message news:AD0CF204-5AFA-404E-91B8-08AEA538831B@xxxxxx Quote: > When I send an email with attached pictures or movies, I get this message: > "Your SMTP server has not responded in 60 seconds.

| | Re: SMTP server not responding What size attachment are you sending? Make sure it does not exceed the limit set by RoadRunner. Also, 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.
