I haven't been able to get my mail through outlook express since yesterday afternoon, this is the message I keep getting:-
The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'pop.ntlworld.com', Server: 'localhost', Protocol: POP3, Port: 1111, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E

Have given up now and getting it through mail2web

It's not Outlook Express that is the problem, it'll be the NTL email servers.
But I can get my email with OE just fine at the moment.

Why are you using port 111? I'm using port 110 here and retrieving mail no problem

Also in Outlook Express, look in Tools, accounts, Mail, select the correct account and click properties, advanced tab and make sure you have not specified a short time out period

I keep getting you pop3 server is not responding, do you want to wait???

as long as you have the correct pop address specified then it would look like the email servers are misbehaving again

What POP settings are you using Nidge?

Was using that port because "spampal" setup told me to, its always worked before...anyway, I just changed it to 1110 and it works now, so thanks for that

I had the same problem with Outlook Express and Hotmail, but it is all working fine now.
