Windows Mail. Can send, not receive

Since switching to Vista and Windows Mail, I have been unable to receive
mail, but can send outgoing mail without problem. I also can't receive
newsgroups.

When opening Windows Mail, I get the "receiving mail" message, with what
seems to be the right number of mail items on my ISP's server, but nothing
arrives. After sixty seconds, it times out with the error message:
" Account: 'pop.tiscali.fr', Server: 'pop.tiscali.fr', Protocol: POP3, Port:
110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC19"

In attempting to solve it, I have:

- Checked my account settings over and over again
- Turned off the firewall, Windows Defender, and AVG Anti-virus
- Tried other email clients, Incredimail and Eudora, with the same result,
so I suppose it's a Vista issue, no a Windows Mail one.

I've run out of ideas. Any help would be much appreciated.
