WLM Won't send mail!

Within the last few days, I have not been able to send any mail
using WLM. I receive mail OK. There have been NO changes made to the
port setup or firewall. when I attempt to send, I get an error, but no real
message indicating the problem. I am running MSE and have done a
thorough scan, with no problems being shown.
I have a second computer on my wireless network and it has no trouble
sending mail. If this doesn't get through, I will have to send it using the
other system!
Any help or ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Dave

What error do you get exactly?
Which eMail provider, which protocol? (POP3 or IMAP both usually use SMTP
for sending)
What security? (many eMail providers will want your password for SMTP
sending)

Most likely it is not a problem of WLM but rather of the account settings.
