Title: I cannot send Email in OUTLOOK Express
Post by: cruizer001 on July 19, 2005, 09:47:51 PM

I am from Bemgium, zo i don't write English very well, sorry.
When i try to send a mail in Outlook Express with a big attachment, it does not werk. I get a message of timeout error, can not connect to the server or something like that.
I looked everywere on the forum, but i can't find the solution.

Hi Cruiser001, and welcome on Avast! forum!
Can you give us more details concerning your computer configuration?
What's your OS, which Avast! release and more...
What do you mean exactly when you say "e-mail with BIG attachment"?

Assuming you can send and receive emails without attachments with no problems/errors, then extend the timeout delay in OE.

 Do you have a maximum file size with your ISP that you can send. Some ISPs only allow 1MB

Increasing the timeout in both OE and Avast should solve it.
