outlook express 6 error PLEASE help

[Alexor 0]

Hello,

 

I use Outlook Express 6 and it has been working great ever since I started using it, until several days ago I tried to send/recieve mail, and out of the blue I got this error message:

 

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.projectgamma.com', Server: 'mail.projectgamma.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

 

I've tried everything I've found on the internet and it hasn't seemed to help. I've double checked all my settings several times. I would greatly appreciate it if somebody could help me solve this problem.

 

Thank you in advance,

Alexor

My guess is that your anti-virus or firewall has changed some port settings on you. Or, it could be that your mailserver is down. In either case read what Microsoft says: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;q191687
