A full error message looks like this:

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'None', Server:
'mail.pacbell.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket
Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

This particular error was caused by putting a hard block to outbound port
25 on my Netgear router. It is similar to the error a user gets when their
ISP is blocking port 25 outbound to off-network SMTP servers. There are
other types of errors, and the full, verbose message is needed to identify
specific problems.
