Hello,

What type of server that your e-mail account works with?
If you are using POP3 or IMAP account, please configure Incoming mail server.
You should try the given below solution to resolve the occurred issue:

Sol 1:
Open "Microsoft Outlook" >> Click on "File" tab >> "Account Settings" >> "Account Settings", locate your account and click on change.... then click on "More Settings" to configure Incoming mail server.



If you are using Microsoft Exchange account, check if you use cached exchange mode. If not, enable it. Click on "File" tab >> "Account Settings" >> "Account Settings" locate your exchange account and click on "change...."
Under server settings, check Use cached exchange mode.

You can check another setting to help resolve being able to send but not receive e-mail messages.

You can set up Microsoft Outlook to check for new e-mail messages at intervals of one minute to 1,440 minutes (one day).

On the "Send/Receive" menu, point to "Send/Receive Groups", and then click on "Define Send/Receive Groups".

Select the group that contains the e-mail account that you want to regularly check for messages.

Under Setting for group "group name", select the Schedule an automatic send/receive every x minutes check box.
Enter a number from 1 to 1440 in the minute's box.



Click on "Close" button. On the Send/Receive menu, click Send/Receive All folders.

Sol 2:
Open "Microsoft Outlook" >> Click on "File" tab >> "Account Settings" >> "Account Settings" >> Click on "Change Folder" button >> Change from whatever it was to: Outlook Data File - Inbox



Close the dialog, click on send/receive or press F9 button and see if it works.

Thanks & Regards

Sounds like a Proxy Server issue.

You probaly have the SSL box checked in your SMTP settings.

Open Outlook Express.
Click on Tools in the menu, and click on Accounts in the drop-down menu.
Click on Mail.
Double-click mail account.
Click on Advanced.
Outgoing mail (SMTP) should be 25
Box on the left of This server requires secure connection (SSL) should be clear. If not, click on it to clear the check.
Clikc OK button and you should now be able to send emails.

If you can successfully receive e?mail messages, but can't send messages, then Windows Mail is having problems connecting to the outgoing e?mail server that's used to send messages. These are likely possibilities:

• If you've never been able to send e?mail successfully using Windows Mail, your e?mail account is probably not set up properly. First, follow the steps to verify your e?mail account information in the "I can't receive e?mail" section of this help topic. If you verify that your e?mail account information is entered properly, you might need to change your authentication settings so that when sending mail, you sign in using your e?mail user name and password. Check with your e?mail provider to see if it requires authentication for sending e?mail.
  To use authentication when sending e?mail
  1. Open Windows Mail by clicking the Start button , clicking All Programs, and then clicking Windows Mail.
     
  2. Click the Tools menu, and then click Accounts.
     
  3. Under Mail, click your e?mail account, and then click Properties.
     
  4. Click the Servers tab, and then, under Outgoing Mail Server, select the My server requires authentication check box.
     
  5. If the account information that you use to send e?mail is not the same information that you use to receive messages, click Settings, click Log on using, and then enter the user name and password that you use to send e?mail.
     
• Many Internet service providers (ISPs) require you to be directly connected to their network to use their outgoing e?mail servers. If you're using a mobile PC and connect to the Internet using a different ISP (such as when using a wireless connection in a hotel), you might be able to receive, but not send, e?mail. Some ISPs will allow you to send e?mail when connected to a different provider if you use authentication when sending. Follow the previous steps to use authentication when sending e?mail. If your ISP doesn't allow this, you'll need to find out the name of the outgoing mail server for the ISP you're currently using, and then change the settings in Windows Mail to use it.
  To change the outgoing mail server settings
  1. Open Windows Mail by clicking the Start button , clicking All Programs, and then clicking Windows Mail.
     
  2. Click the Tools menu, and then click Accounts.
     
  3. Under Mail, click your e?mail account, and then click Properties.
     
  4. Click the Servers tab, and then enter the new mail server in the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) box.
     
  5. If the new outgoing mail server requires authentication, under Outgoing Mail Server, select the My server requires authentication check box.
     
  6. Click Settings, click Log on using, and then enter the user name and password for the outgoing mail server.
     

Typically this error indicates that you are trying to send your Adhost email through Adhost’s mail server when you have not authenticated your email account to send mail. Our mail server authenticates you through your pop account. So when you check your email, our mail server authenticates your pop user and password, captures that IP that you are checking your email from, and adds that IP to our relay list. This list is flushed every 70 minutes. This means, if you try to send email after the relay list has been flushed and before you’ve attempted to check your email, you will receive this error.


How to fix the problem:

Fix #1 - reauthenticate on our server.

Remove any email from your Outbox. If you need to keep the message, you can move it to your 'Drafts' folder.
Click "Send/Receive". This will reauthenticate you.
Try resending the email.
Fix #2 - configure your email client to check for email before sending.

In Outlook, go to "Tools" and select "Email Accounts". Make sure "View or change existing e-mail accounts" is checked. Click Next.
Select your account from the list and click "Change".
Select "More Settings".
Select "Outgoing Server".
Check "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication".
Select "Log on to incoming mail server before sending mail".
Click "OK", then "Next", then "Finish".

This will fix your problem

Are you using Windows mail or Outlook? You need to set the sockets and outgoing server settings.
Try going to Outlook Express tools, Accounts, then click on "ISP Account".
Click "Properties", then the servers tab and check that the detail in the SMTP entry is correct for your ISP. It may be advisable to delete it and re-enter it to be sure.
Go here and do further reading.
If you use Windows Live, use one of these settings. You can check it from here, and also download the setup again. If it gives more trouble, go to Add/Remove Programs and from there you can select Repair or Change->Repair.
Check the router settings to check whether it blocked (or check the settings if you have a firewall).
For further help, please Right Click on My Computer and go to Manage and go to Event Viewer and go to the Application category and copy and send us the exact error message please.
