Hi Bill, what are your current Outgoing server settings? Use port number 465. Make sure SSL is enabled and the authentication box checked. Select “This server requires a secure connection.” If you can’t send mail with these settings, you may need to change the outgoing server settings to match the requirements of the internet service provider (ISP) in Costa Rica. Note: be sure to delete any emails stuck in the Outbox before trying to send a test email. You may need to close and reopen Outlook after changing server settings. -Becky, Cox Support Forums Moderator
