Does your connection to that server go through some other internet
provider's
equipment before it gets to buraak.net.pk? If so, such connections to port
25
are often blocked to cause trouble for spammers. In this case, you have two
choices: 1. Ask buraak.net.pk if their outgoing email server listens to
any
port other than port 25 for outgoing mail, and if so, how to switch to the
other port. 2. Use the outgoing email server of the first internet
provider
in the connection instead.

Also, what if any antivirus programs do you have? Some of them cause
various problems in Windows Mail, although seldom immediately.
