I use Outlook Express for e mail. Was sending OK. Then after a while I noticed no mail was going out. Help!
Msg I get is "Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server or network problems, or a long period of inactivity. This was Fri, now today, Sat, I'm getting the same msg. I checked all my settings and all are correct. However, I noticed in the error msg under "Connection" it says "using dialer." I'm wireless, so why does it say that? I can receive incoming msg OK.Thanks for any help out there.

It sounds like your ISP has changed something on its outgoing (smtp) mail server. It has happened to me twice already with my ISP. You should contact your ISP and ask them for the IP number for their SMTP server. (Don't worry, they will know what it means, even if you don't. It will be a number something like 123.456.78.90.) Whatever number they give you will have to be entered into the Properties of your OE.
