On the Laptop, when I go into the "E-Mail Accounts" configuration screen and
click on the "Test Account Settings..." button, a dialog box comes up with
two tabs. The first tab shows that the tasks "Establish network
connection", "Find outgoing mail server (SMTP)", "Find incoming mail server
(POP3)", and "Log onto incoming mail server (POP3)", all finished with a
"Status" of "Completed". Unfortunately the "Send test e-mail message" shows
a completion status of "Failed".
Flipping to the "Errors" tab I see the following message:
"Send test e-mail message: Unable to send test Message. Please verify the
E-mail Address field."
FWIW, the "Test Account Settings..." button works as it should on the
desktop machine.
When I attempt to send an actual E-Mail via Outlook 2003, I create the
message and click "Send", and the message immediately goes to the Outbox and
sits there. When I click on the "Send/Receive" button, the "Outlook
Send/Receive Progress" dialog pops up and I get the following message:
"Task 'pop.mail.yahoo.com -- Sending and Receiving' reported error
(0x800CCC0F): 'The connection to the server was interrupted. If this
problem continues, contact your server administrator or Internet service
provider (ISP).'"
Thought?
If you have done this already, have you tried creating a new profile for
Outlook to use?

Yes, I've got all of the SMTP and POP3 settings set correctly, and on the
"Outgoing Server" tab of the "Internet E-Mail Settings" dialog I've tried
both the "Use same settings as my incoming mail server" and "Log on the the
incoming mail server before sending mail", and both options fail in the same
way.
Regarding a new profile, no, I've not done that, and geez, I've never even
heard of that before. Needless to say I've not even tried that. I'm
curious, why do you think a new profile might help?
Best Regards,
Dale

Have you checked your application event viewer for any Office-related errors?

After furious head scratching, Shipo asked:
As you have explained in your email, there is definitely nothing wrong with
the account settings or with your outlook.
the problem is with your ISP,
If your ISP is not yahoo they do not allow relaying, hence you cant send
mails using a wireless network.
If your desktop is directly connected to the modem or router, ISP can
identify that computer hence u can send mails.

That's interesting - I have a laptop connected wirelessly to my router and
when I do "Test Account Settings" it NEVER says "Establish Network
Connection".
Does your laptop not automatically connect to the network on boot up?

You can have an on-demand network connection instead of an always-on network
connection if you configure it that way.

I just wondered whether it might be a network problem rather than an Outlook
one....
