Just about to post this and see the thread on grammar!!!! I will read that in a moment, I cant write to save my life

Any way, Im finally getting round to setting up some pop email accounts in outlook.

Some of the accounts are coming up with the following

Task mail. ****.com - Sending and Receiving' reported error (0x800ccc0f): 'The connection to the server was interrupted. If this problem continues, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP)

Two of the accounts come up all the time with this so one could assume I have set them up wrong. Well they look like the others to me, the ones that do work but these dont.

Also there is one other email address on a different domain name that is sometimes coming up with a problem and sometimes working.

Dammed email is my biggest worry. I just dont trust any of the systems im using. I could be missing important emails and never know.

What do you guys use? is web mail reliable?

Thanks

Stuff happens. The correct format is what you used mail.domain.com.

I check 3 accounts everytime I check mail. Two are remote and one is my ISP provider account. Errors are very common. At least one account of three messes up every 3-4 checks.

Just wait a minute or two and check only the one you missed using the down arrow beside the mail icon to check that one.

Hi colbyt

It seems it only want to download 4 email address'. I have deleted the others I had that worked just to see if the magic figure 4 was the limit. Are there settings that can be set to allow me to download more at once? I have tried your method but it didn't seem to work?

Hope people dont mind me asking these questions here. Not technically web design related.

Thanks

Did you change your Mail server setup in your domain control panel(this is available at your registrar). It happened to me a few days back. I modified the MX records and stopped receiving emails from cpanel. If yes, change it to default.
In my outlook 2003, I receive emails from 6-7 different accounts.
Another tip : if you don't want more email address, do an email forwarding at cpanel hosting.
