Outlook 2007 send/ receive error

[Barbara]

I have been using Outlook with my Horde mail account for about 6 months, I
recently did a registry and cache cleaning and now I am getting this
send/receiver error # 0x800408FC. Please help!
Thanks

Did you happen to set a System Restore Point before doing that? Registry
cleaners seldom do anything but cause problems. My suggestion is to not use
them at all. Too often things get whacked that it things aren't needed
but--as you can see--are. One of the recurring themes in these (and other)
forums/groups are posts that start with "I ran a registry cleaner, and
then..."

If you didn't, then please post the contents of the error message. From
what I can tell that error usually is something like "The server name you
entered can not be found on the network." Verify that the server is in fact
the server it should be. If you have antivirus software that is integrated
with your email, try disabling the email integration and do your
send/receive again.

No need to post more than once.

Sorry about the message. Yes the content was what you have ...The server name
you entered cannot be found on the network. I did verify the server the email
address, checked for email integrated anti virus software (none) I also went
back to the restore point and restored back to before I cleaned it. It still
is not working.
