Did you double check the account settings in the link I provided?
If you haven't, reboot and try.
Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer
of protection that eats up CPUs, slows down sending and receiving, and
causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs, account setting changes
and has even been responsible for lose of messages. Your up-to-date A/V
program will continue to protect you sufficiently. For more, see:

Any better now? If not, does it show downloading message X of X messages,
and does it stop on the same message?

I have never used OE before, and now that I have it set up, properly, I
think, I get this message whenever I try to send an email?
The message could not be sent because the server rejected the sender's
e-mail address. The sender's e-mail address was '.
