I changed the ports and now no longer have any of my "inbox" emails.
Currently have my "Sent Items" but am really confused where the inbox
went.
Ditto. Why it happens:

Your current Identity may have been damaged by McAfee VirusScan, especially
if its the default Main Identity. Try one or more of your accounts in a new
Named Identity (File Identities Add new identity). Assuming all is
well, (1) compact all folders in the old identity, (2) import messages from
the old identity into the new one, and then (3) delete the old one (File
Identities Manage Identities).
Windows XP Pro
Is the machine fully up-to-date at Windows Update?
McAfee anti virus but no firewall protect.
It's entirely too risky to be running without a firewall these days. At
least enable the Windows Firewall.
General OE Caveats:
- Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local
folders created for this purpose.
- Empty Deleted Items folder daily.
- Disable Background Compacting [N/A in SP2] and frequently perform a manual
compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at
http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm
- WinXP SP2 only: Do not attempt to close OE via Task Manager or shutdown
your machine if Automatic Compacting is taking place.
- WinXP SP2 only: If your machine is fully up-to-date at Windows Update,
installing the following patch (KB918766) will help to avoid such data loss
in the futu

This patch will be included in the next Cumulative Update for Outlook
Express/WinXP SP2.
- Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause
corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.

Last Friday, Aug 4, I first experienced not being able to download
emails. I get a
"An unknown error has occurred. Account: 'pop3.ric.cnc.net', Server:
'pop3.ric.cnc.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error
Number: 0x800C0133"
I have tried to change ports, same problem exist. It just chases the port
that it changed to.
I can send email but not recieve it.
I changed the ports and now no longer have any of my "inbox" emails.

Details:
Windows XP Pro
Outloos Express 6
McAfee anti virus but no firewall protect. Rather I use Windows for this
Choice Mail, V3.1 email program. I turned this off and the probel still
exist. I reset the settings in Outlook Express to pull from my pop3 server
and still no success.
I have contacted my service provider (Concentric) and went through their
checks and port 110 is contacting their server. I ran a DOS command they
instructed and everything was fine there they said.
I un-installed Outlook Express 6 and then re-installed it as they
instructed and the problem still exist.
Any ideas as to what could cause this problem?
