Receiving in Outlook Express

[Bill M]

When I open Outlook Express 6.0, it won't let me receive messages--I can send
an e-mail but can't receive!! It gives me an error of:
Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for
this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Account: 'mail.bellsouth.net', Server: 'mail.bellsouth.net',
Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F.

This has been going on for about 3 months and I have tried everthing I can
think of!
Can someone help me with this problem?

Thanks
Bill M

You're better off asking in a newsgroup that specializes in Outlook Express:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie...inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress&lang=en&cr=US

Outlook Express is part of Internet Explorer. This newsgroup supports
Microsoft Outlook which is part of Microsoft Office. In spite of the
similarity of their names, they are not the same application, nor is Outlook
Express a "light" version of Microsoft Outlook.

There are expert Outlook Express users in the OE newsgroup who are better
able to assist you. Good luck!

When I open Outlook Express 6.0,

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook
97/98/2000/2002/2003/2007 from the Office suite of products. Outlook
Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.

For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as
microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general (for OE 6), or
an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're
accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support
Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click
http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...px?dg=microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general
Good luck!
