Hey Guys,
Thanks again for this informative site! I've searched for this problem with no solution.

When I am at work I am able to send and receive e-mails through my Outlook express, we use COX cable at work. At home, same COX cable, but I can only relieve e-mails, not send.

When I send e-mails I receive this error:

"The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.vegashotspots.com', Server: 'smtp.lvcm.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E"

This is driving me up a wall, I need to be able to send e-mails from my home as well.

I have a personal e-mail account as well, same problem. I can recieve. But can't send. with that email address I receive this error:

"The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop-server.twcny.rr.com', Server: 'smtp-server.twcny.rr.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E"


any help would be so appreciated!

Try port 1760 for the SMTP, this always seemed to work with cox. If that does not work, your domain host may have an alternative suggestion.
