My domain for my work is through 123-reg and everything has been fine up until a few days ago where every time I tried to send an email via Outlook it comes straight back, I don’t mean bounces back 30 seconds later, it doesn’t even leave, it just comes back with an error message a second after I hit send.
I am using an old version of Outlook on my work laptop, but my home PC is an up-to-date 365 version of office.
I can send via my iPhone which obviously doesn’t use Outlook and I can go onto the web-based server on 123-reg and send emails from there (so all is not lost I can still function) but it is becoming a pain in the arse.
Emails coming no problem at all but I can’t send anything.

They had an issue last week with Hotmail address is not being sent from their server, but that has been resolved. I did phone them and they told me there wasn’t an issue their end, it’s a problem with Outlook so they couldn’t help me.
I am using a pop server rather than IMAP, but if I change it to IMAP then every time I look at an email on any device in then doesn’t send the emails anywhere else, that’s no good.
As I say it’s been fine up till A few days ago
.
Any ideas?

Thank you

If you go through the register it looks like it's happened before as well.

You might not have any luck getting to the root cause until they sort their shit out

Sounds like you need to switch to another provider?
I know it takes time etc but if this has happened before sounds like it's best to ditch them.
