Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.

John Richards - 30 Apr 2008 18:58 GMT This problem is likely due to interference from a non-compatible antivirus. Which antivirus are you running?

Gary VanderMolen - 30 Apr 2008 20:19 GMT Trend Micro's antivirus can definitely cause this problem. As a temporary test uninstall your antivirus, reboot, then try Windows Mail again. If that fixed the problem, we can recommend a free antivirus that is more compatible with Windows Mail.
Your other option is to upgrade to Windows Live Mail, which seems to be more resistant to interference from antivirus programs. http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

You may then need to remove your email account under Windows Mail, then restart Windows Mail and add the account again.
If this cures your problem, you may want a replacement antivirus program that doesn't cause such problems. Most versions of the Norton and McAfee antivirus programs are bad choices; they also cause problems in Windows Mail, possibly even more often. I recommend either avast! or AVG, either one with a custom install that tells it to leave out the part that scans email.

I suspect that I've seen problem reports saying that Webroot Spyware also causes problems in Windows Mail, but I recommend that you wait for someone else whose memory is clearer on this before you uninstall it.
You can have more than one antispyware program without problems. I use three of them:

The third is Windows Defender, from Microsoft. I don't remember if it came with Vista or I downloaded it later.

Dave - 30 Apr 2008 19:09 GMT Do you have have the setting for Outgoing server authentication set correctly? Go to Tools - Accounts - (your account) - Properties - Servers make sure there is a checkmark in the box for "My server requires authentication" Ok
If this doesn't help, then perhaps it's interference from your anti-virus, anti-spyware, or anti-spamware programs.

Gary VanderMolen - 30 Apr 2008 20:52 GMT It would have been helpful if you had identified which antivirus you are running. Most Norton, McAfee, and Trend Micro antivirus products cause problems with Windows Mail.

Bob W - 30 Apr 2008 21:07 GMT Well, I have, and tried, Norton 2008, McAfee 10-in-1 ISS, SpySweper, Trend PCCillin and SpyBot S&R (free) with Vista HP on my HP DV9500. Had no problems at all with McAfee (well once after a restore that turned off one of the need services, easy fix), minor problems with WebRoots SpySweeper Antivirus and Trend's PC-Cillin, none with SpyBot S&R, and major bugs with Norton. It not only screwed up WinMail, but it disables, without telling you, the Restore System. Many updates and Installs and Apps had to be manually configured. Norton was very automatic in Vista.

Gary VanderMolen - 01 May 2008 00:20 GMT A sample size of one is seldom definitive. We go by the overwhelming evidence of many reports posted in this newsgroup over the past 15 months.

robertmiles@bellsouthNOSPAM.net - 30 Apr 2008 20:55 GMT In some antivirus programs, you disable email scanning and leave it disabled. In others, either you can't do this, or it doesn't help if you do, so you have to uninstall that antivirus program instead.

[quoted text clipped - 34 lines] >> >> > outbox and comes up with and error message. any suggestions? >> >> > thanks! Bob W - 30 Apr 2008 21:01 GMT Depends. What virus program are you running? Most have a permitted-programs or permitted access or trusted sites list some where where you dial in the tweaks. Most good programs, when first installed, will ask about each app and access as it occurs and learns what is OK and what is not. My favorite which has worked will for me without issues in Vista is McAfee 10-in-1 ISS. Had Norton at first. Did not work well with Vista - at all! - dumped it, got McAfee. Other then having to turn it off for the SP1 update, I've had no problems and it has some very nice extra features and tools. Does all my computer maintenance for me automatically (backups, scans, disk cleanup, defrag, etc.). Tracks attacks and ISP's for you, Internet Site Advisor (regular, not the SA Plus - that was too annoying). For the money, it's about the best out there. Runs something like a 98% against everything. The only better programs are the German ones that cost around $90 - more with the falling dollar against the Euro. VioSoftware and Amazon have good prices on it for full and OEM versions.

Are you sure you want to trust that geek squad to do much more than take your money? You may want to try turning off email scanning in it, and leave it turned off, to see if that helps. However, that's unlikely, so you'll probably have to uninstall it instead. You may then need to remove your email account under Windows Mail, then restart Windows Mail and add the account again.
If that cures your problem, you may want a replacement antivirus program that doesn't cause such problems.
