ISP (orange) claims it's a microsoft problem!
The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'Name', Server:

Anybody got any ideas?

your account settings are correct.
Configure Outlook Express for Orange.co.uk:

Another explanation of the error can be e-mail scanning.
Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer
of protection that eats up 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 lose of messages. Your up-to-date A/V
program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more, see:
http://www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3
In some cases, you must remove the program and reinstall in custom mode,
opting out of e-mail scanning when you see the option.

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'Freeseve', Server:
'193.52.22.140', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error:
10051, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
Happens also with server set as smtp.orangehome.co.uk
Have tried to send with Firewall down and anti-virus email plugin disabled.
Will try again with firewall AND anti-virus shutdown. And, if unsuccessful,
followed by a reinstall of AVG without email scanning.

without the email component appears to have resolved the issue.
However, this problem has been intermittent over a number of weeks so i'll
just have to see how it goes.
thanks for your help and advice re email scanning - not exactly a microsoft
problem i would say.
cheers

not the next. Eventually it's fixed, for a few days, weeks or months. It
could be that.

when they unexpectedly upgraded my connection to 8mb. I requested a
downgrade to 2mb (cheaper and with a greater download limit) and it's been a
nuisance ever since. It's fine while the connection is active but
disconnects when idle. It shows as being connected but i have to disconnect
and reconnect to access any online services.
They won't provide me with my MAC code without a hefty penalty. I'm hoping
now that they do not resolve the issue by 27/02 when legally they will have
to free me of my contractual obligations without forfeit. What are the odds
it'll be sorted on the 26th!
it's no surpise to me that there's an 'orangeproblems' website!
thanks for the lnk - bookmarked for future reference.
