I just updated McAfee and can no longer receive emails in MS Outlook 2003. I
had no problem until installing the updates. I uninstalled McAfee and the
problem went away. Re-installed it and having the problem again. I have
received 2 different messages, which follow:

Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC0F) : 'The connection to the server was
interrupted. If this problem continues, contact your server administrator or
Internet service provider (ISP).'

Receiving' reported error (0x8004210E) : 'Your mailbox is temporarily
unavailable because another e-mail message is being delivered to it or
another mail application is accessing it. The server responded: -ERR
[IN-USE] account busy (locked by another POP3 process)'

Can anyone offer any suggestions to resolve this?

Sigh - uninstall McAfee, then reinstall and select NOT to install that useless and troublesome email scanning engine. You are already protected by real time scanning when you open an email.

Better yet, dump McAfee altogether.

I uninstalled the spam filter and it now works fine again. Thanks for your
suggestion...
