E-mail problem with Norton Personal Firewall Marvin 10-28-2005

Since replacing an earlier version of Norton Personal Firewall with NPF 2005, I
can't send
e-mail from Outlook Express or Mozilla Thunderbird unless NPF is disabled.
Symantec's
tech help has made many suggestions, none of which cleared up the problem. Has
anyone on
this NG had this problem? If so, how was it solved?

I had this problem twice with norton Internet security 2005:

1st time:
Go to the Anti spam tab, click "Anti Spam" and then "Turn off". That
fixed it. I never used it anyways, so I left it off.

2nd time:
An update screwed up the applications list.
Fixed it by going to "personal firewall" then "configure" then
"programs". I selected the programs one at a time and removed all of
them. After that I clicked "program scan" and it reconfigured all of
the programs. E-mail worked again.

Hope this helps,

-Nate
