Windows mail:

supported by your IMAP server (if any) are supported on this computer.

server, due to non-network errors. This could, for example, indicate a lack
of memory on your system.',

additional info:
I'm using my laptop connected at home to a wireless router.
I also disabled my anti-virus email scanner but that still didnt help.
I tried changing the SMTP server from 25 to 587 but still did not work.
