error message as incoming OE mail stops receiving
 

I keep trying to connect to Outlook Express, but I keep getting the
message,

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes
for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Account: 'mail@', Server: 'xxx.171.xxx.66', Protocol:
POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

I have stopped (free) Zone Alarm firewall and tried again, but still
get same message.

I have even stopped the AVG AntiVirus program and tried it again
without
success.

I can access the email via the web browser, and occasionally I do get
the
first email downloaded (but not deleted from the server) but something
seems to
stop OE from continuing.

The Outlook Express POP3.log seems to be truncated (see below). The log
seems to indicate that it gets to the same place each time and then
bombs
out.

Any ideas anyone please?

Thanks,
Paul

This was answered in another newsgroup.

If you must post identical messages in more than one newsgroup please
crosspost, i.e. please place all of the newsgroups in the Newsgroup field of
one message, separated by commas. That way when someone reads the message
in one newsgroup it will be marked as read in all of them. In addition, an
answer posted in one newsgroup will generally show up in all of them.

This is usually not necessary since most of those who answer posts read
more than one newsgroup.
