Outlook Express 6 - Error Number 0x800CCC0F

[Erich]

When I try to receive email, I get the following message -
any ideas?

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection.
Possible causes for this include server problems, network
problems, or a long period of inactivity.
Account: 'comcast', Server: 'mail.comcast.net', Protocol:
POP3, Server Response: '+OK', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No,
Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

Try posting this in an Outlook Express news group - this group supports
Outlook from the Microsoft Office suite of business productivity programs.
Outlook Express belongs to Internet Explorer and exhibits very different
behavior and fixes.
