I have 3 systems connected to DSL via a D-Link 614+. System 1 is running XP & Outlook 2000. System 2 is running W2k SP3 & Outlook 2000. System 3 is running XP and Outlook Express 6. There have been no problems with System 3. System 1 & 2 starting failing to send mail. Receive mail with NO problems. Get error msg SMTP error code 0x800ccc60 or 0x800ccc67 or 0x800ccc0f. On systems 1 & 2 I configured Outlook Express 6 accounts and get the same results. On system 1 I installed Pegasus mail and get the same results. If I leave the messages in the Outbox, very infrequently both system 1 & 2 will send the messages. This may happen once or twice in a 24 hour period. Otherwise, mail just sits in the outbox with continued attempts to sendfailing. I have discussed with ISP, BellSouth, several times and they say they are having some issues with their email servers but if I can receive mail I should be able to send it also. We have verified the server names multiple times. The big question, if the problem is on my side, is why does mail get sent at all? Is there anything I may have missed? Everything was working fine for several months and then this happened to 2 of the three machines within 2 days of each other. I have removed firewall and virus protection as a test with no positive results. Any suggestions for what I should check next?
Thanks,
Larry Phillips
