New computer (win 8.1) has the same e-mail settings as the old one (win 7), still it doesn´t send e-mails. Error:Cannot open: C:\Users\Elina\AppData\Local\Temp\nsmail.tmp. The other problem is a text: the machine timeswiched of the sending (after 5 seconds)? I can reseive e-mails.

re: C:\Users\Elina\AppData\Local\Temp\nsmail.tmp Delete the 'nsmail.tmp' file.

It is in an 'AppData' folder, so make hidden files and folders visible to locate it.

Do you use an anti-virus program to scan outgoing mail? If yes, disable scanning of outgoing mail.
