I have tried to send emails from my email server mail.peertechnical.net but I receive the following error message:

Sending of the message failed. The message could not be sent because connecting to Outgoing server (SMTP) mail.peertechnical.net failed. The server may be unavailable or is refusing SMTP connections. Please verify that your Outgoing server (SMTP) settings are correct and try again.

I have used incoming server port 110 and outgoing port 25 (same as my outlook setup).

I receive incoming emails all right.

Regards,

Vijay Tase

Assuming server settings are correct: Try Outgoing port 587 Connection Security: STARTTLS Authentication Method: Normal Password

Then check to see if the reason for not connecting is because server is not using up to date TLS protocols. Read info on resetting the TLS:
