Email Error

[Keith C]

I Get the following Error using Windows mail:-

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'mail.optusnet.com.au',
Server: 'mail.optusnet.com.au', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No,
Socket Error: 10013, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Can anyone help?

That type of error is usually caused by interference from a non-
compatible antivirus program. Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

If turning off your antivirus email scanning function does not resolve
your problem, consider upgrading to Windows Live Mail, because it
is less prone to suffering bad effects from overly intrusive antivirus
programs: http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons
explained here:
