Bluecow Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Account: 'pop3.wight365.net', Server: 'pop3.wight365.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0FThat's the message I get when I try to send or recieve email. I've turned off AVG and Zonealarm, but still get the same result. These are my pop and smtp settings are they correct? (ISP = my ISP:))pop3.ISP.netsmtp.ISP.netThere is no "blockage " on the server as I've used eprompter to delete all the rubbish from there I sthere anything else I can do?Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvw Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 It looks as though you can use the web mail facility as well as Outlook/Express to send and receive emails.http://wight365.net/webmail.asp and try signing in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scarecrow Man Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Have you recieved a large file from someone? You could try changing the timeout setting to a much larger time and see if it has any effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluecow Posted December 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 It's not the router :blink: I've setup outlook express on the lappy and it works fine, must be the settings on the desktop.......... :angry: Going away to calm down and will post tomorrow night, just going to delete the account on the desktop and put it all back in........Cheers for all the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bvw Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 If you have the account on the laptop just go into Outlook Express, Tools/Accounts/Mail and export the settings, then import them to the desktop Outlook Express. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zfactor Posted December 16, 2004 Report Share Posted December 16, 2004 Try changing the settings frompop3.ISP.netsmtp.ISP.nettopop3-server.ISP.netsmtp-server.ISP.net...just a thought, some ISPs use this as their address. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Proprietary software comes with one major issue: only the developers can diagnose bugs. Advise: download Thunderbird and install that. Set it up just like outlook express, and it works the same way as well. With one major difference: you MUST MUST download an attachment before launching it. It will not allow you to launch from the email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
