Too many concurrent SMTP connections

Hello Folks, I'm back again and maybe under false pretences as I don't know if this is an OS problem or an Outlook problem or a server problem, but you lot seem to be the Oracle of Everything anyway, so here goes: I keep getting this message and a refusal to send mail until I have tried five or six times, then off it goes. Sometimes I don't get it at all. I am using a Blueyonder address which is now Virgin Media of course and they are busy boosting everyone's speeds so perhaps it is their fault. Any help gratefully accepted; grovelingly yours, Keith.

That's my vote since it sometimes works. Either that our your system is way too powerful for them.

Looks that way to me too but how can my system be too powerful?
