Emails Won't Send

Hello Jan,
Let's work together to fix it. Follow the below steps to disable AVG Secure VPN and check the status.
Open AVG Secure VPN -> click on toggle bar to turn it off, you can try to send an email now. If it resolves the issue, follow the steps suggested in this https://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=Troubleshoot-AVG-Secure-VPN-email article.
Hi, having installed the VPN - using outlook 2016 POP email will not send. 
Gmail email in Outlook will send
Have tried changing the location - no change
Have tried setting email shield off - no change
I know i can turn off the vpn and send the emails but thats not really what i want to do.
Any help appreciated.
