Windows XP Error Message

0x800ccc0e

Why do I Get Windows 0x800ccc0eError Message?

Sounds like you are having problems sending and

receiving emails on your computer using

Outlook, OutlookExpress or even Windows Mail in Vista.

Your error message may look something like this one:

The connection to the server has failed. Account:

'<account name>', Server: '<SMTP server name>',

Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure (SSL): No, Socket

Error: 10051, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Here is the Usual Reason for the Error

0x800ccc0e

The most common reason for this error happening is due to an SMTP connection error. In plain english this

means that your computer is trying to send and email but the remote email server that it is connecting too

If you are connected to the Internet through ATT, and you attempt to send messages by using an account

other than your ATT e

This behaviour can occur because ATT does not allow email messages to be sent to another Simple Mail

Transfer Protocol (SMTP) email server while you are connected to their network.

You will need to check that your email account settings are correct and that PORT 25is the port used

under the SMTP area

You may need to check your ISP's help pages to obtain the POP3 and SMTP email settings.

You can also receive this error message when you have antivirus e

software enabled on your computer.

Try turning it off for a moment and attempt to send the email again. If it works then the security software

is the culprit and you will need to contact your ISP for instructions.

I hope this information helps your troubleshooting!
