I know this issue has been brought up elsewhere but I'm having trouble logging into my email accounts, both sending and receiving. I've had no mail since the weekend, instead getting the error messages

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'my.username@ntlworld.com', Server: '127.0.0.1', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'my.username@ntlworld.com', Server: '127.0.0.1', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

I see others are having the same problem but I'm still not sure how to address the issue.

Any steps in plain English to resolve the problem would be greatly appreciated.
