I've recently moved all my email accounts in outlook express to my 64bit XP pro computer....everything used to work in my Laptop's outlook express with 32bit XP pro.  Now in my outlook express, (64bit XP pro), I can receive my emails from hotmail (windows live settings) but can't send...I always get a smtp error...i'v changed ports bet. 587 and 25 and still have the same error...all my other email accounts have no problem so far....please help.

Thanks,

Please confirm with your Internet Service Provider (ISP) if they’re blocking both ports ( 25 and 587). If they do, ask your ISP to give the settings to their SMTP so you send your message. If both ports aren’t block, please allow us to access your account.  Before you grant us the permission to access it,  please check out our solution article below:
