I don't know what to fix there. Email never worked for me on Windows without some setup. I use smtpmail, but it will not work without setting it up for your ISP's mail server. So, for me, there's no regression: it never worked in previous versions of Emacs, and it does not work now. Lennart seems to know what kind of solution worked for you in the past, so perhaps Lennart could try fixing that, or at least describing what changed in Emacs that broke that solution, whatever it is. I don't have Outlook set up to even try what you describe. > Do you really want bug reports from Windows users? Yes, and you know that.
