Outlook sending not receiving
Hi, apologies my first post here and I am asking for help.
Is it just me or is sky email not working.
I am using Vista Windows Mail and can only receive emails, but sending is not working, I am getting this error message.
The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'Re: website', Account: 'pop.tools.sky.com', Server: 'smtp.googlemail.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 465, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
I have not changed anything so am at a loss as to what is making it go wrong.
Can anyone help at all please?Last edited by floart; 28-07-09 at 10:18 PM. Reason: error

Re: Outlook sending not receiving
My OE is receiving and not sending -- and I have the same error message as you floart - except I am using smtp.googlemail.com AND pop.googlemail.com
It seems to be back now at 3.05 am.

Re: Outlook sending not receiving
Last night I noticed that I can receive email but can't send email.
The problem is still occurring this morning.

Is there not a Sky system status report somewhere on this forum?

Re: Outlook sending not receiving
I don't know if it's just a coincidence, but it's working again after I did the following: I checked my email settings in Outlook. everything looked OK except I noticed that in the server settings I had pop.googlemail.com and smtp.googlemail.com . (presumably because that is what the instruction said at some tome in the past) I changed "googlemail" to "gmail" and everything is now OK.

Re: Outlook sending not receiving
I'm not able to send email either from my OE I get a error message
The error that the other server returned was: 550 550-Verification failed for <xxx@sky.com>
550-The mail server could not deliver mail to xxxx@sky.com. The account or domain may not exist, they may be blacklisted, or missing the proper dns entries.
550 Sender verify failed (state 14).
