Friend is running WinXp home sp2 using outlook express for email and
has just gone from dialup to cable with optus. E-mail now doesn't work
with the 0x8000ccc0e error. I have deleted the email account and
created a new account. Disabled all firewalls and email scanning. These
were win xp firewall and Norton antivirus 2004 with no luck. I can't
even telnet into the mail server port 110, I get a connection failed
with firewalls disabled. I can ping the mailserver and can telnet into
the optus mail server on my computer which is on a different cable
connection. They can log into their web mail account. I have reset the
tcp-ip stack. I can ping the mail server. Any ideas or other places to
search?

Thanks
