Email suddenly stopped working. I have not changed any settings recently,but only the send function has failed(I can still receive email)
Error message is:Account: 'pop.secureserver.net', Server: 'smtpout.secureserver.net.', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 80, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC19
Tried system restore to an earlier date, but that did not work either.
Looks like it may be time to consider transitioning to either Mozilla Thurderbird (modern update to the outdated IE) or an online-only mail service.
I’ve been using Thunderbird for several years with no problems.

Double check your SMTP server. If it is actually ‘pop.secureserver.net’ then that will be your problem. It should be ‘smtpout.secureserver.net.’ or ‘smtp.secureserver.net.’ or something similar. POP is generlaly used for incoming and SMTP is used for outgoing.
FWIW, I also get this windows box...
Your SMTP served has not responded in 60 seconds. would you like to wait another 60 seconds for the served to respond?
Account:pop.secureserver.net
Server:smtpout.secureserver.net.
wait stop

Most Internet Service Providers have a web-based email client for their customers. I would use that before going to something like gmail, which invites a major invasion of privacy.
Before somebody ‘helpfully’ asks if you’re logged in, check with your mail provider for all of the correct POP3 settings. Port 80 is usually for web browsing, not mail. The correct port varies among different POP3 servers.
For my Yahoo! I use 465.
Check your settings. You say nothing has changed, but something obviously has--probably without your knowledge.
> Your SMTP served has not responded in 60 seconds.
Your internet service provider may have changed the name of their smtp server.
Give their tech assistance a call to see what the correct name should be and modify your Outlook client smtp server setting accordingly.
Are you using stamps with the old postage rate?
I had some issues with outlook.com yesterday.
“Are you using stamps with the old postage rate?”
I bet he’s using one of those “Forever” stamps. Might be why it’s taking so long to send...forever is a long time.
“Are you using stamps with the old postage rate?”
LOL! *Coffee Spewing* :)
I didn’t know anyone still used Outlook Express.
I gave up on all that pop crap in the 90’s. I see they still have the same dinosaur technology.
It could be a problem with your service provider. Several weeks ago, I had two accounts that just wouldn’t work thru my provider, Time Warner/Roadrunner. Not real important email accts, I discontinued them automatically attempting to download. A few days later, I got an email from TW apologizing for the service disruption. I hadn’t complained or anything...but they knew THEY’D had a problem.
You should start with your provider.
I’ve got no problem - just sent an email from Outlook to GMAIL; I use the Chrome browser. Have you tried starting a new browsing session, or even a reboot if it’s been a while?
“secureserver.net” ??? If you are using something like a Yahoo/Gmail account then I think your server settings got hijacked.
I feel like I have heard of that domain before. Like others have said, you may consult your ISP (who you pay the internet bill too) if they are the ones who provided the email address to you. They will know the server settings and help you resolve it quickly.
If they changed to IPv6, then your version ot OE may not support it. You might have to turn off IPv6 on the settings page of your network adapter.
As others have stated, verify the port settings are correct and the mail account settings are correct as well.
I had the same problem - could receive, but not send. I had to disable IPv6 in my firewall and on the network adapter properties page to fix it. Outlook 2000 is no longer supported and doesn’t support IPv6. At some point I will upgrade, I’ve just been procrastinating.
