I can't send any emails from outlook express. I receive my emails fine. Does anyone know what might be wrong?

   We are going to need some details.  Do you get an error?  What happens when you send the emails?

I type the email and hit the send/receive button. I end up getting an error message saying the connection to the server has failed.

   It sounds like your SMTP setting is wrong.  The SMTP setting has to be what your email provider has told you to put for that.  If you have not ever been able to send emails with the way that you have Outlook Express set up now, you need to contact your email provider and find out how to set up Outlook Express.  If, on the other hand, this just started and you didn't make any changes to Outlook Express's settings, it could be a temporary problem with your email provider.  There again I would probably contact them and see what the problem is.
