I can not send an e-mail. when I type in my message and try to send I receive a box on the screen that reads sending message in progress with a blue line that's moving from left to right but the message does not go out. after a short time that message will go away and I get a message that reads sending of the message failed. I don't know what to do to fix the problem. I have worked with my provider but they don't know what the problem is Hope someone there can corret this. thank you

Try to start Windows 10 in safe mode with networking enabled.

Does the problem go away?

Windows safe mode disables anti-virus software. This is a troubleshooting step, not a solution.
