To get any meaningful advice you need to post full error message. However, that small section does give a hint as does the fact that you can still send emails directly from your VM webmail account.

I am thinking that VM are blocking emails being sent from your home IP address but the full error message would confirm or disprove that.

Post that full error message but if that includes your IP address, then hide the details like this "IP 8x.xx.xxx.175 ".

It would also help if you could confirm that you are still a VM broadband customer.

Many thanks

Hi @raylincs,

Thank you for your post and welcome to our community forums. We're here to help.

I'm very sorry to hear that you're having some issues using your email service via Outlook. Are things any better today?

If the issue remains, can you try setting the email back up on Outlook? As it's working as expected via our webmail platform it suggests that there's nothing wrong with the email address and service itself.

Thanks,

Hi Zach

She still can not send emails in outlook today

If I delete the outlook account will she lose her emails?

I did try and set up a duplicate email account and tried the test and it wouldn't send

Thanks for coming back with that information. The error message says it all and confirms what I first thought. Virgin Media are blocking emails sent from your home IP address presumably because suspicious traffic, possibly from malware on a device on your network has been detected. You will still be able to send VM emails from your Webmail account, just not from Outllook or any other email app.

That error message used to go on to say "Visit https://netreport.virginmedia.com/netreport Section: Email Sending Errors to request delisting"

You could try using that link and then selecting and then clicking 'email sending errors' in the drop down menu. You can then copy and paste the full error message into the  'Log evidence' space and fill out your details. 

Others have done that and had the issue resolved.

Deleting and reinstating the account in Outlook will not resolve that. The only thing that will is to get the matter investigated by the appropriate team in VM and have that block removed. Hopefully sending the request from VM's Netreport page (as above) will initiate that process,

Hope that helps.
