I have Windows Vista in my new Wireless Laptop and until three days ago I
could send and receive emails fine. However, now I can receive emails but
not send them. There is an error message stuck in my Outbox and I cannot
seem to get rid of it...Until this stupid message is deleted off the Outbox,
no emails will go out... PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME HOW TO FIX THIS...! I have
been online trying to find a solution and no one seems to know how to fix
this problem...

I know that this is not really the right place for Vista-Mail problems but
try http://support.microsoft.com/kb/941090 to resolve this stupid problem.

I had that same problem and tried something that worked. My pop3 had
the same setting, namely "mail.comcast.net" for both incoming and
outgoing mail. I just switched my outgoing to SMTP.comcast.net and it
works now. I hope it is that simple for you to fix yours.
