Windows Forum / Outlook Express / OE 6.x / August 2004Sending attachments
When sending email with pdf attachments I'm getting an error message "the message could not be sent. An error has occured" And the message dies. It is an intermittent problem. However I can send any and all attachments when using Comcast's email engine. Can anyone advise? When you get such an error, click the Details button and post the first two lines of the error message. Although it sounds as though you are attempting to use a mail server to send that you are not presently connected to. Many mail servers will deny access to their SMTP servers to send mail unless you are authenticated with them, either by doing a POP before SMTP or by using the authentication options on the Tools/Accounts/Mail tabs for the account involved.

The problem is that there is no details button. The entire error message is "The message could not be sent. An error has occured". It gives no other details other than it happens when sending attachments. I can send email without attachments but it fails with them. The POP and SMTP settings are correct as is the attachment file size. >-----Original Message----- >When you get such an error, click the Details button and post the first two [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > >. Couple of things to check. Can you send a message to yourself with an attachment? Does it arrive with the attachment intact? Are you using an antivirus program to scan outgoing mail? If so, remove that option from the antivirus program. Are you sending these messages via an ISP that you are connected to and have been authenticated to use their SMTP server? Last, can you telnet to the SMTP server involved? http://pages.prodigy.net/michael_santovec/pop3telnet.htm SignatureJim Pickering, MVP-Outlook Express Please reply only to newsgroup. > The problem is that there is no details button.
