I am having problems receiving emails, although I can send ok. I have checked
the settings on my laptop, these are the same as my pc. PC works fine but
laptop is a problem. Receiving 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.karoo.co.uk', Server: 'pop.karoo.co.uk', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110,
Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10053, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F"....any ideas?
Thanks

It could be an incompatible AV problem.
Are you using Norton or McAfee?
 
was using Norton but read elsewhere that if I uninstall this culd solve the
problem. I have just done this and abd problem seems to have been rectified.
Now using freeware AVG protection which seems no problem.
Many thanks for response.

Thanks for reporting back another clear cut case.
 
web link in window mail will not work, get a note saying the application cannot be found and help's suggestion about unblocking something on the 'information bar', wherever that is, I haven't found it either...hope someone can help! namaste
 
This has been useful, time for me to think about taking NAV off my new Vista
computer!

Is there a way to get Microsoft Mail to leave the mail messages on the
server. I quite like using Microsoft Mail when I am away from the office but
it deletes the messages from the server when it collects them. I would prefer
the messages to remain on the server so that the office mail software can
still collect the messages for the rest of my colleagues to read.

Any advice welcome.

Regards

Menu bar (ALT if not visible), Tools > Accounts, highlight your account,
Properties button, Advanced tab, Delivery (at bottom of dialog), check Leave a
copy... and set the two options below.
 
Dear Cal Bear,

Thank you, will try this and revert back to you.
BTW which is the "best" anti virus software for Vista which will not
interfere with Microsoft Mail, or for anything else either!
Please advise

I am, at the moment, using Microsoft's OneCare (came free with my purchase of
Vista) and have had NO problems at all on my Vista Ultimate x86.

I use Avast (free) on my Vista Business x64 also with no problems.

Other users like AVG (also free), and I have read very good things about NOD 32
(not free).

In any event, e-mail scanning should be turned OFF in any anti-virus program as
it is redundant and provides no real benefit
 
Go to Control Panel | Default programs and set the default programs there.

Dear All,
Belated feedback.

The removal of NAV sorted out the difficulty in sending mail, thank you.
Am trying MS OneCare, it seems to work fine!

Response: '-ERR Login failed.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error:
0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92 - I have had my set up since i got this
computer I have been able to send email before what has happened now

Try deleting that email account, restarting Windows Mail, then
recreating the account.

This problem may be caused by your antivirus. Which one are you using?
