Outlook 2007 has worked fine for me, until today when the error (0x80042109) appeared when trying to send outgoing mail. I don't have a firewall turned on, nor do I have AV software interfering with transmission, nor have I changed anything in my account
settings. I have followed the microsoft support site's suggestions for this error up until the point of reinstalling Outlook. I have restarted the program, restarted my laptop, and have restarted my internet connection (which works fine) numerous times.
I added my hotmail account in outlook to see if it would let me send emails, and it does.
It appears only to be with gmail that it will not let me send outgoing mail. I have checked and rechecked the settings - everything is set up the way it is supposed to be, ports are correct, etc. This error appears after a moment every time
I attempt to resend the message.
Any help you anyone can provide would be great. Thanks,
Chris
Use the following settings for your internet email account in Outlook 2007:
Open Outlook 2007 click on Tools > Account Settings > double click on the problem email account > click on More Settings > Advanced
Ensure the SMTP Port number is set as 587 for the Outgoing Server and encryption as TLS
Ensure to check the My Outgoing Server requires Authentication option under the Outgoing Server tab in More Settings
