When you are checking for new mail you might receive one of the following errors.
Tip: In many cases error codes are identical between Outlook and Outlook Express. If you search Bing for an error code and find a site which discusses Outlook Express, check it out. Because Outlook and Outlook Express both use the same underlying technology, the cause and the solution may be the same for Outlook.
Error Codes
#5.5.0 smtp;553 sorry, that domain isn’t in my list of allowed rcpthosts (#5.7.1)
This means the server you are trying to send to is blocking mail sent from your server. You’ll need to contact the recipient’s administrator or send your message using a different mail server.
Mail server errors

Disable the email scanning or increase the timeout setting. Also, make sure your firewall is allowing the scanner software to connect to the Internet.

I’m getting an STMP error and a popgmail error message. I’m not able to send emails from this account.
Why?
This is with a gmail account? Did you enable the gmail account for POP3 access?
What is the exact error message?
My email still won’t go through
What is the error message?
Regarding the error Error 0x800CCC0F it is driving me crazy! I did thousand tries and the issue remains. I have one computer where it works and other a new one, it was working and now it stopped. All account settings/ports are correct. Here are the tries with no positive results (didn’t fix):
1. Uninstalled M.Office 2010 and installed over;
2. Removed Norton 360v5 and desactivated all Windows firewall;
3. Removed the old Outlook profile and create a new one (From control panel) andset all accounts over;
4. Tried another PST that is working in another machine with the same server account;
What esle I would try?
Uninstalling/ reinstalling rarely fixes problems. Norton security programs can cause problems, the plain vanilla Windows firewall generally won’t (unless its set to block Outlook).
Does the internet seem to work fine otherwise?
What type of email account is configured in Outlook?
i keep getting the error code 0x800ccc14 whenever i open my OE. what is this error and how can i get rid of it?this is linked to my gmail account
Does it give a reason with the code? What antivirus do you use?
how do I fix error 0×80042109
What antivirus do you use? Is it scanning outbound email?
Who is your email provider? Are you authenticating with the server?
Some isp’s won’t allow you to send mail while using another isp’s network – in many cases, changing the port to 1025, 587 or a port they specify will allow you to send.
Don’t answer these idiots Diane, that’s what happens when you blog you will get ppl trying to ask for a quick fix without doing so much as giving u an error code or searching for the error code. They should pay someone to give em the quick answer with a magic wand.
When I’m really busy I do ignore some of the questions,. but they also help me to see where I need to update or improve my articles. :)

I get the above error on every 3rd or 4th try in my outlook sending. I try 2 or three times and it goes through. the recipient seems to get it each time? if i use web mail I have no issues at all so I am assuming it must be between outlook and our web host, they claim it is an outlook issue.
Any ideas?
What antivirus or security software do you have installed? Some will filter mail. If the problem is easily repro’d you can close outlook and restart in safe mode – To open Outlook in Safe mode: Close Outlook then hold Ctrl as you click on the Outlook icon. You’ll get a message asking if you want to start in Safe mode. Click Ok. – then see if it happens. If not, its caused by an addin installed by the security software.
