Error # 10060
Message from:<a@a.com> to:<b@b.com> Connect
error in directly sending! Info : Socket Error # 10060
Analyse: You are on a an ISP (such as Earthlink or Mindspring)
that blocks their users using any SMTP server other than their own.
Solutions: To set up Earthlink, Mindspring, or your ISP's
SMTP servers for your outgoing email you must click on your account settings
in the email client you are using (Outlook Express, Eudora, Netscape etc.)
In the SMTP (outgoing mail server) field you will enter smtp.earthlink.net
(or whatever your dial up or direct access ISP's SMTP server is) as your
SMTP server. You must then enter your Earthlink (or your ISP's) username
and password for that mail server.
In Outlook Express it is at the bottom of that same tab. You must uncheck
'My server requires authentication' and click on 'settings' to enter your
Earthlink (or your ISP's) username and password.
Your email will still be from your own domain name, the only difference
is in the way it is routed throughout the Internet. Instead of being sent
through our servers it is processed through Earthlink (or your ISP's)
servers. This allows Earthlink (or your ISP) to monitor its users.
