OK folks, bought a brand new desktop PC today that came with Vista and
therefore Windows Mail. Have therefore been working my way through setting
things up.
'PC World' in the UK also managed to get me to buy Norton 360 with my
desktop as they had it on offer at 1/2 price with the purchase. Sounded like
a good idea as previously I would run all sorts like AVG, ad-aware, Windows
Defender with XP and so thought one Norton program would be more easy on the
PC.
So, when it comes to Windows Mail with Vista, I keep getting the usual thing
others have experienced (from finding this site today and having been reading
the posts), in that it comes up with a 'Windows Security' box asking for the
user name and password when I hit the send/receive button (to retrieve my
e-mails from my ISP). Upon inputing the info all I then get is:-
Account: 'mail.vfast.co.uk', Server: 'mail.vfast.co.uk', Protocol: POP3,
Server Response: '-ERR Login failed.', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server
Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92
So, based on other threads/post I've read, I've now duly unisintalled Norton
360 this evening as per the Norton Removal Tool.exe file that was posted
somewhere on this site via a weblink. Also deleted the ISP e-mail account and
then started over again without installing Norton 360...still no joy and get
the same message and error!
I see some people going on about ports in some other threads.
I have sent a message to my ISP (www.Vfast.co.uk) to see if they have had
this problem with other customers using Windows Vista and Windows
Mail...needless to say, I never encountered this problem with my ISP when
using Windows XP and Outlook.
PS - vfast serve the rural parts of Kent, England, just in case you have not
come across the name before from other posts. They should hopefully get back
to me tommorow.
Any tips, tricks and help would be greatly appreciated so I can get my
e-mails at long last.
