Error '80040220' The SendUsing

Issue:

Some webhostings restrict or filter the access to their SMTP server for security reasons. Please check:

  • If the webserver requires a login and password to establish the connection.

  • If the server blocks any connection that is not coming from their own network or domain.

  • If the SMTP server requires a port different from the default (port: 25) for making the connection.



Solution:

  • Check your username, password and SMTP server information to make sure you have typed them correctly.

  • Ask your webhost how could you connect from outside that network or domain, and also for the correct connection port.
