Email Problem

[macgill_26]

Recently when I went to join a forum as usual it was email verification to activate your account, only this it wouldn't accept free email addresses such as hotmail.com or yahoo.com so I had to use my blueyonder account. So I opened Outlook Express to see if I had an email when it came up with an error message reading,

A time-out occurred while communicating with the server. Account: 'pop3.blueyonder.co.uk', Server: 'pop3.blueyonder.co.uk', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC19

It said it was due to a long period if inactivity.

The thing is though I can still sent emails but just can't recieve them.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Cheers
MacGill

long time since i used oulook but in the tools options etc there is a option to alter the time out you should be able to ater it so it does not time out at all.ill see if i can find out a little more info
goto tools accounts highlight your e-mal.address and click properties the the advance tab, there you can alter the time out hope this helps
