Outlook not sending manual emails-
Strange issue--Outlook sends all email when asked - EXCEPT manually generated email never gets to the ISP -- EXCEPT if I test the connection via the internal change function, it works fine (at least it says so and I rcv the email sent - I assume it goes all the way to the ISP and back).
This appears to have started when a suspicious email was opened. The resident virus scanner is Webroot. Two virus scanners (VipreRescue and Malwarebytes) picked up 3 serious threats and 23 others. It did not fix the problem. Apparently, something was changed in the registry - BUT WHAT???????????? Outlook shows the emails as sent in the sent folder. If I reply to an email, it bounces back as not a recognized address. Using email via the web works fine. SO, it is not an ISP issue. Email is rcvd just fine & IE works fine so it is not a connection issue. The configured email pop and smtp addresses are correct - it wouldn't end up in the sent folder or rcvd if they were not. This has spread to 3 out of 4 computers in the office (2 XP and one Vista) so it is not a system issue. All are connected via a router and I don't know how a virus could change something in the router - but if so what. turned webroot off on one system and it did not help. ANYONE---------------- |

here is a reply--------------
the cause is the signature file............. but wait.......... ONLY if I have a telephone number with a 909 or 919 area code. Obviously I haven't tried all area codes, but I did try about 6. NONE of the machines will send an email - though Outlook reports it as sent -- if there is 919 in the phone - actually I made it a "-" to the zip code and it didn't send either. 919 is in a web link but that doesn't seem to bother it. a sig file with JUST 919 in it doesn't seem to bother it. Where the emails go that do not get sent is a total mystery. I tried sending from another computer via outlook - not part of this site - and it appeared to work ..............................???????????????????? ????? |
