what does this mean

Account: 'pop.gmail.com (1)', Server: 'pop.gmail.com', Protocol: POP3,
Server Response: '-ERR not supported w43pf6267284pyg', Port: 995,
Secure(SSL): Yes, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC18
this is what I see after configuring my gmail account as well as the
windows mail.

Help from someone who has accessed gmail through window mail is appreciated.
 
Max,
I recently upgraded to Vista and received a similar error message. Start by
looking in your gmail account under: Settings/Forwarding and POP. Download
the configuration instructions that are relevant for your situation, and
follow the instructions to the letter. One mistype and you're screwed. This
is step one. If that doesn't fix it, you may be working with an older version
of MS Outlook. Outlook 2002 is NOT compatible with MS Vista. (THANKS for
telling me that before I upgraded!! No notes or warnings from the upgrade
advisor either!!) I then ended up calling HP to help me import all of my
contacts and e-mail messages into WINDOWS Mail. If you have Outlook 2003 or
later, I think you might be OK.
Good luck!
Chris
 
Look at the Properties of that account, Servers tab, make sure
that "Log on using Secure Password Authentication" is not checked.

the incoming server is pop.gmail.com
the outgoing server is smtp.gmail.com

I had to check the box for "My Server Requires Authentication"
in order to send.
 
read all the messages and went "by the book" on the configuration of Windows
Mail for my gmail account. I am still getting this error message

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for
this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Account: 'pop.gmail.com', Server: 'pop.gmail.com', Protocol:
POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10053, Error Number:
0x800CCC0F

Can someone help me out??

configuration by myself tho :) )

Have you activated POP via Gmail itself?

Norton and McAfee AV causes problems too.
 
I've been getting a very similar message from my Windows Mail....

"Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible
causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long
period of inactivity. Subject 'xxx', Account: 'My Name', Server:
'SMTP.telus.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket
Error: 10053, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F"

No help from Telus Tech Support. I have WM configured for
pop.telus.net and Port 995. Might be something else I've missed. Any
thoughts?

The links describe setup for Outlook Express, Windows mail setup is exactly
the same.

Check your settings as per:

HTH?
 
"pgpersons", why are you posting a TELUS issue in a thread dealing
with a GMAIL issue? Please start a new post for a new issue.

The problem you are seeing could be caused by your antivirus program.
Windows Mail seems to be overly sensitive to corruption from
antivirus programs, and is definitely incompatible with most
McAfee and Norton antivirus programs. If you are using either
of those latter two, it is best to uninstall and replace with a
more compatible antivirus, such as the free version of Avast:

Sorry. I had googled the error number and this page came up. It looked
as if others were having a similar problem, albeit with a diifferent
ISP. Thanks for the suggestions, anyway.
