Receiving Mail

[Interactive Financial]

I am having issues receiving mail from my work account. Its a Pop3 account
and this morning it worked fine. This is the error message I get:

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

'Unexpected termination' is often caused by your antivirus program.
Which antivirus are you running? Some of them are not fully compatible
with Windows Mail. As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus
must be turned off, although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all
bad effects.

If turning off your antivirus email scanning function does not resolve
your problem, consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it
is less prone to suffering bad effects from overly intrusive antivirus
programs: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons
