Chances are that it's your antivirus program. Disable it and try to receive
mail. If it works, you'll need to tweak the settings in the antivirus
program. I use Avast! and I just turned mail scanning off completely
because of this problem.

N, it's not your antivirus, There is a known issue with the blueyonder.com
mail server. Either wait a wile and try again, or else give your provider a call.
