    send mail not responding

    When i try to send an email it will not respond. I can't delte an outgoing
    email, it will start receiving but will not send. I have to close out windows
    mail all together. I have logged out of sbc yahoo so there is not conflict.
    It simply will not respond. I tried to delete all 5 emails that are waiting
    to be sent but nothing happens.

    If there is an accumulation of messages in the Outbox folder, open
    the Outbox folder. Move as many of those messages as you can to
    the Drafts folder. If any won't move or can't be deleted,
    apply this Microsoft fix:

    Is there an error message? Which antivirus are you running?

    You are using obsolete port settings for those mail servers.
    Use the settings currently specified by your ISP:

    Re: send mail not responding

    If you got the same error message, then you did not follow the directions on
    that page. For example, your error message says port 25, it should be port 465.
    Your error message says no SSL, but SSL should be enabled.

    If your latest error message says something different, then you will need to
    post it so I can analyze it.

    RE: send mail not responding

    I've gone back twice deleted my account & put in the settings as per AT&T
    help pages. As soon as i click delete or send it says not responding. I was
    able to delter a couple of emails yesterday that were smaller folders. These
    are big 178 pics. I understand if they file is too big to send but i can't
    get them to delete. I did disconnect my internet as well. I'm totally lost.
    Any other steps i can take?
    Thanks for your assistance,
    thomasr

    I didn't ask for an error message. Did you do what I suggested (below)?
