Sorry to be so late in coming back - I had forgotten I had posted it!!!!!

Seems the problem is with Orange as its also now affecting my Outlook Express and apparently I am not on my own.

Have emailed and written to Orange - not  bothering with a phone call and am awaiting a reply.

I have googled on this one and it appears that certain ISPs are blocking Port 25 to cut down on spam - which unfortunately does not help me sending emails.

Fortunately (or unfortunately) I am going on holiday tomorrow and will try to get it sorted out  when I get back.

I am having problems sending email from (incredimail - OE and Thunderbird).

OE and Incredimail are giving the message that they cannot connect to SMTP server 193 252 22 187 Port 25

and in Thunderbird it says it cannot connect to the server.

I have noticed that the emails in Incredimail  outbox do go out eventually.

Any ideas please - Incredimail have been trying to solve this one for a month now.

Sorry

Meant to come back and say that the problem is sorted.

Thanks a lot.

Have now uninstalled and reinstalled and will come back if things go wrong.

Thanks again.

Its OK I went into Windows Updates and they are all there.  I shall now try the uninstall/reinstall thingy.

Liz

Further to the two posts of mine above I have just gone into Defender and it has done a scan and also says the computer is running normally.  ???????????????

Would you recommend an uninstall/reinstall?

Liz

 Further to the above I  have just tried to do a scan and it has come up with error message Ox80070002 and says cannot find the file.

Liz

Window Defender Updates are up to date.

I run CCleaner manually at close down and I have now unticked History and will see how it goes.  Just cannot understand why it has suddenly started doing this as its been OK.

Many thanks

Liz

I am having a problem wih Windows Defender.

It keeps telling me that I have not scanned in 14 days and yet at the bottom of the page it gives my last scan which in this case was yeterday.  Any ideas.

I have made several attempts to download this but get as far as the installatiion and up to registering it and then it tells me I am not connected to the internet when I am - I am on broadband - any ideas.

I spoke too soon - I cannot receive my mail from Mailwasher through Incredimail again - have emailed Incredimail and told them about the problem and will be interested to see what they say.

Liz.

I tinkered about with Mailwasher yesterday and today everything is working as normal - don't ask. 

However I have received an email from Incredimal support to say that Incredimail 5 is not compatible with Mailwasher.  No comment.

Liz

I now find that when I click Process Mail in Mailwasher nothing is coming through into Incredimail.

I am having to make OE my default in order to obtain my mail from Mailwasher.

However when I go into Incredimail later on I find that mail is coming through.

Any ideas.

I have emailed Incredimail but they are not the fastest people to deal with.

Liz

Just remembered how to do it,

Ooops
