Question : Outlook 2007 - Can't send email. Recent problem.

Outlook 2007 getting this send error:  (0x800CCC64) : 'Cannot send the message. Verify the e-mail address in your account properties.'

Recently upgraded (2 wks ago) from O2K3. Was working fine until day before yesterday. Then no send. Have "verified e-mail address" in the account properties - it's right. Deleted account and re-created - same problem. Ideas?

Greetings lancehankins !

1. Register an important send/receive library file.  Go to Start > Run and type regsvr32 inetcomm.dll

2. Check if antivirus email check is slowing sending and receiving.  Disable it. Check if other programs running in the background is interfering. Disable one at a time the Firewall, antispyware, antispam, and all Norton programs.

3. In the account settings, Advanced settings, change the server timeout time from 1 min to 5 min

4. Check if outgoing mail server authentication is required. Select that option in account settings and use same settings as incoming server

5. Your ISP may be blocking port 25. Try using alternate port 587.

If no joy, you need to use your ISP SMTP server to send out emails.

6. Create a new Outlook profile.

7.  Check with email provider Tech Support to determine if server is having trouble.
