I have just arrived in Paris, France. I receive messages, but can’t send messages via Outlook Express. I am renting where there is LiveBox, which I believe is with Orange.fr. I don’t know what to change in my outgoing configuration … tried all the above suggestions. Still, the messages won’t send.
Open up a hotmail account or a Gmail account to use so you do not have to change your settings in Outlook express. This is the quickest option that I can give you. You can also divert your e-mails that come into Outlook express straight to your temporary account by setting up a message rule. This article is about setting up a message rule for an auto e-mail, but you can use it to forward the message to your new temporary account. Hope this helps.
to whom it may concern,

I’m using Windows Mail (Vista) and GoDaddy. I primarily check via Windows mail on my PC. I have the settings correct,”Leave copy on server”, “Delete when deleted…”, but GoDaddy doesn’t sync – my mailbox often becomes full (graphic designer).
Anybody know how to get GoDaddy to “sync” with Windows Mail 6? Thanks!
Just got the new Galaxy S 4G and was not sure where to get the settings. This was a HUGE help. Thanks for sharing.

GoDadday indicates that 80 is preferred output port, but that 80 doesn’t always work and you must use alternate such as 25 or 3535.
Especially when you are traveling… If you can receive email but attempting to send results in messages stuck in your outbox, try changing output port to 80, 25 or 3535.
Thanks so much … my problem too was the outgoing serve port number.
I so appreciate your help!
Thanks for the outgoing port number. I thought that might be my problem but could not locate the information within the godaddy site. Thanks so much and I owe you a beer! Marty
Works like a charm. Thanks!

I tried everything you suggested down to a tee. It still won’t work for me. A login popup box keeps popping up every time I use an SMTP port other than 25.
Yeah,I think it is very good.
thank you for your share.
