This means the connection with the specified host on port 25 cannot be established. Most likely, there is a firewall or antivirus or antispam (i.e. anything which can filter netwrok traffic) installed on MailBee machine or in the network it belongs to, and this software blocks outbound connections from MailBee to external hosts.
Even if your Outlook is working fine, the firewall firewall/antivirus can still block other applications.

Alex

BTW, error code -5 (often referenced in this forum) means the same as -6. -6 is produced when the connection is asynchronous (SMTP.EnableEvents=True).
