Orange UK is my Internet Service Provider. In the last few months sending emails has become problematic with SMTP errors and mails taking literally 5+ minutes to leave the outbox. I’d tried changing SMTP servers a few times but with no luck. However, I’ve finally found one that seems to work with no problems. If your having similar issues try changing the SMTP server address in your email program to smtp.orange.co.uk (it’s probably configured at the minute for smtp.orangehome.co.uk or smtp.wanadoo.co.uk etc). Mine are flying out now, even for my non-orange email addresses.
