6 months agoHi gordp maybe I can shed some insight into this issue. If you are sending an email just fine and the recipient is having issues, then the way to fix it is for the recipient to not use Outlook and instead use the native website dedicated to that email platform. Have them try going Here and log in.
If you have any questions we are here to help and you can send us a private message but there are a lot of variables here to determine who is at fault and how to fix it.

It is not the recipient having the problem, it is ME. MY emails will not go through. See attached. And if you follow the links Microsoft suggests as I did, the issue seems to come down to the usage of ports that are no longer available but far beyond my comprehension of technical issues. I’m more practical. And when I can send an email to the holder of the Outlook account via Apple Mail and iCloud, that causes me to cast an eye of suspicion on Telus.

How are you sending the email? Using what program?
