connecting to pop
I am on a XP system using a DSL connection and for two years mail has gone
out immediately but lately I first see a message block saying "connecting to pop.xxxx.net" for a few seconds. It is the same local ISP I have always had. Any idea what caused the change? Thanks SG

Maybe your DSL connection has gotten slower. It can
happen if a lot of connections are added in your area and they haven't upgraded the lines to handle it. You could try a speedtest (free and nothing to download or install): http://speedtest.net ~dd "shakey" shakeyATsonic.net wrote in message ...

connecting to pop
If this doesn't work, please post the entire error message.
Turn off e-mail scanning in your anti-virus program. It is a redundant layer of protection that eats up CPUs, slows down sending, and causes a multitude of problems such as time-outs and account setting changes. Your up-to-date A/V program will continue to protect you sufficiently.

Connection is as fast as ever and the message occurs prior to sending and I
am already connected to DSL. Thanks SG " d d" wrote in message ... Maybe your DSL connection has gotten slower.
