Here’s the story. After configuring my Email Via Outlook Express, I’ve tried to send an email from my Gmail account to Godaddy Email. And It works, I received it on my Outlook Express Inbox. And after that, I’ve tried to send an email from Outlook Express to my Gmail Account. I’ve got an error message which said something like this:

Sending of message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to SMTP server smtpout.secureserver.net failed. The server may be unavailable or refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your SMTP server setting is correct and try again, or else contact your network administrator.

Hmm, not good. So I’ve tried reading some materials on Godaddy FAQ’s and searching it on Google. Looks like I’ve found the answer. I’ve changed the default Port 25 to Port 80 or you can use Port 3535 whatever works for you. If these does not solve your problem in other version of Outlook Express, you can always use other email client program. I recommend Mozilla Thunderbird. You can download it here for free.
