    It's the Outgoing Mail Server in your email account properties. Did you set everything up exactly as specified by your ISP or email provider? If not, that's why you're getting the message. It would be best to contact them with this, as nobody here knows anything about who your email provider is or what their SMTP server requires, "fedup2here"

    /fedup2here/ said: SMTP would be your outgoing mail server, which should not be on PORT 0.Check your outgoing mail server settings in Vista...and perhaps contact your ISP.

    Each antivirus program is different. Didn't you get a manual with yours? Even without a manual there should be a Help button. Search the help index for topics on email.Gary VanderMolen "fedup2here"

    For that painintherear error with Windows (Vista) Mail and McAfee Security Center, I just exported the email address profiles (.*IAF) via "Export" under "Tools" and "Accounts", shut ALL windows, uninstalled McAfee completely, rebooted, reinstalled McAfee with reinstall CD that came with computer, kept everything closed and when McAfee updated latest virus profiles, went in and turned OFF SpamProtect, Email Scanning and IM scanning. Rebooted again just in case, and then opened Windows Mail on Vista, imported those email address profiles back in, and everything has worked fine since. Hope you have as much luck as I after days of frustration (!?)"Gary VanderMolen" wrote:

    Scratch that. Works great for awhile and then eventually McAfee still accesses the actual folders, even though no longer scanning incoming/outgoing emails, and error starts popping up again. "SRP" wrote:

    Yep, we've been telling people that for many months now. McAfee (and Norton) won't keep their cottonpicking hands off your email until you completely uninstall the program.I haven't heard of anyone having similar problems with the free Avast antivirus, and I've had no issues with my free Computer Associates antivirus.Gary VanderMolen "SRP"

    FOUND THE TRICK FINALLY FOR Error Number: 0x800C0148 and McCaffee on Vista and Windows Mail...the key is a Custom (re)Install of McAfee WITHOUT the SpamProtect and then to immediately turn off Email Scanning and IM Scanning, thus, something like this:To keep my email accounts for easy reimport, I first exported the email address profiles (.*IAF) via "Export" under "Tools" and "Accounts".Then, shut ALL windows, uninstalled McAfee completely, rebooted, reinstalled McAfee with reinstall CD that came with computer, MAKING SURE TO DO A 'CUSTOM INSTALL' AND NOT A 'TYPICAL INSTALL'. When doing so, make sure to UNCHECK the 'SpamFighter/Blocker' option under "Custom Install" (this is the program that actually access and scans the mailboxes after messages have downloaded, and thus affect Windows Mail folders adversely.Then I kept everything closed and when McAfee updated the latest virus profiles, I went in and turned OFF the Email Scanning and IM scanning immediately (SpamProtect should no longer even be an option as you didn't install it.) Then I rebooted again just in case, and then opened Windows Mail on Vista, imported those email address profiles back in (*.IAF files above).Everything has worked since then, with no more pesky errors.
