Hello,

I'm on windows 7 pro 64 bit and outlook 2000.

I have two computers with same configuration and software.
On one computer I can send emails from outlook 2000 smtp via ssl on the other computer I cannot.
The email stays in the output folder for ever. In cports I see the connection "time waiting".

I cannot find the reason, why on one computer it works and on the other not.

Thanks lot for helping me with this issue.

cheers mike
 
Hi xilolee,
thanks for your reply.
orange.fr is the provider.
both computers are on this provider.
I forgot to say that the ssl problem is for both smtp and pop.
We are on windows 7 pro 64bit.

I think it never worked.
We always connected without ssl.
But now orange published the connection parameters with ssl.
So I changed the values and recognized the problem.

Cheers mike
 
Hi,

I have disabled the firewall and ssl is still not working.

Hi again,
we are using the standard windows firewall of windows 7 pro 64bit.
We are not using any antivirus software.
Where do i find the log of outlook 2000 ?

Hi,

thanks for the tip.
I checked IE settings: both SSL and TLS boxes are all enabled.
Unfortunately even with these settings the problem still occurs.
I have even used the option: "Recognize & Repair" in outlook2000 with the install cd inserted.

I'm sorry, but on my system no log is created, or I cannot find it, even with the screenshots of you above.

I do not see this dialog box.
May be I clicked "don't show again" long time ago.
Atleast I do not find an option to enable it again.
May be you can tell me the key and value in registry to do that.
Cheers mike
 
I do not find it there. I have searched all settings.
But it must be somewhere in the registry ...

xilolee,
I really appreciate your effort for this annoying issue. (y)

It's not:
firewall
outlook setting
ie setting
etc.

the only thing I could imagine is the network configuration.
this is a work-network of 4 computers all connected with network cable or wireless to the router.

I could imagine, that the problem could be inside this network.
the network works fine synchronizing files and every computer has internet access. (no shared internet access)

It's a nightmare finding out this ssl issue.
BTW accessing internet webs via https is no problem by each computer.

Cheers mike
