Error Message

[Grandad]

Over the last few weeks we have started to get the error message below on
all our email accounts, also we are more often than not asked to re-input
the User Name or Password. Whilst our email is working most of the time
these messages are very anoying. We are using Outlook 2003, can anyone shed
any light on the problem please

Sorry,

Forgot to include the error message

Task '(e-mail address removed) (mailto:[email protected]) - Receiving' reported
error
(0x8004210A) : 'The operation timed out waiting for a response from the
receiving (POP) server. If you continue to receive this message, contact
your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP). The server
responded: -ERR An operation on a socket could not be performed because the
system lacked sufficient buffer space or because a queue was full.'

Thanks......................

That's a server problem. Your ISP must solve it. Sounds like a .NET error.

Enable diagnostic loggin and see if it helps resolve the problem.

Send the log file to me. I'll see if I can help. The address with which I
post to this group is a valid address. If it's not too large, you can post
it here instead.
