Error number: 0x800CCC0E in Windows Mail on the attempt to send email following October 2013 automatic Windows update

Immediately following October 10, 2013 Windows Vista update automated - 25 updates is installed on my Toshiba Satellite laptop and HP Pavilion Desktop - cannot send emails from a computer using Windows Mail - they return both the same error message: "failed to connect to server...". "Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, secure (SSL): no, Socket error: 10013, error number: 0x800CCC0E".  E-mail can still receive however on both machines.  There is no problem whether the sending of emails minutes before the update took place.  Anyone who has known (and solved) this problem?

Postscript: problem solved - on both my laptop and desktop, I discovered that under Windows Mail > tools > accounts > (my tiscali account) > properties > servers, the entry for the outgoing (SMTP) mail has been entered incorrectly as smpt.tiscali.co.uk.  This change of smtp.tiscali.co.uk solved the problem on both machines.

Windows Mail worked perfectly on both machines immediately before Windows update Oct 10 - so it seems that the update must have corrupted a file to install Windows Mail on my two computers.  Not sure how other users may be affected by this...

Perhaps Microsoft could take a look?

    Hello

    Your ISP, who runs the mail server, can provide port numbers and other settings. Pages of help/support of the ISP may have this information easily accessible.

    The other common cause of error 0 x 800 is safety programs - an antivirus program scans incoming or outgoing e-mail, or a Firewall interferes with authentication.

    I tried the 587 port not working either.

    anyhelp would be greatly appreciated

    I guess that your problem is with the reception, because the error message you have provided relates to the reception.
    Ports 25 and 587 do not affect receive it, because they are for the shipment.

    The error message is difficult to assess because you x'd, one part of the name of the server. Perhaps the error is in the part "xxxxxxxx" to the name of the server.

    I've been out of town for a few days. I was using a public Wi - Fi connection to my laptop. The first part of the week worked fine, but now using the same wireless connection, I receive the following error message. Has happened since yesterday afternoon 03/10/08 and today is 05/10/08. What is the problem? Help, please!

    The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.charter.net', server: 'mail.charter.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, secure (SSL): Yes, Socket error: 10060, error number: 0x800CCC0E

    From: Gary van

    In Windows Mail, go to the tolls, accounts, select the account mail.charter.net, properties, advanced. Change the port number for the incoming (POP3) server from 995 to 110. Make sure that the adjacent SSL option is not checked. Click OK.

    As a general rule, the owner of the SMTP server must be the same that provides your Internet connection at the moment.

    The workarounds available when sending abroad are the following:

    1. use webmail to send (via your browser).
    2. ask your ISP if they have one port other than '25' for SMTP. I do not think that
    Charter of fact. Cable companies are very difficult to accommodate travellers.
    3. If you frequently use the same connection away from home, replace the SMTP Protocol
    Server in this respect. It's a little tricky, but if you want to go this route.
    I can provide more details.
    4. If you frequently send to multiple locations, get a free Gmail account,
    Configure it to POP access and use for your shipment of household chores.
    Gmail uses port 465 for SMTP, which is not blocked as is port 25.

    "Crash" is usually caused by interference from a non compatible anti-virus program. What antivirus do you use? At a minimum, email, scanning in the antivirus must be disabled, but maybe it's not enough to eliminate all the bad effects. In the worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

    If disable your antivirus e-mail analysis feature does not solve your problem, consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it is less sensitive to the suffering of the ill effects of too intrusive antivirus programs: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

    E-mail analysis in any antivirus must be disabled, for the reasons explained here:

    You use Windows Mail? It could be a number of things.
     
    • Modem or router - reset both.
    • Server problem possible they need to solve.
    • Analysis of e-mail messages. Very likely.
     
    Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that devours the CPUs, slows down sending and receiving and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes and has even been responsible for the loss of messages. Your up-to-date A / V program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more information, see:

    Why you don't need your anti-virus to scan your email

    Note that for many AV programs, it may be necessary to uninstall the program and reinstall in custom Mode and uncheck e-mail scanning when the option is available.
