Sending and Receiving Error?

G

George Marshall

Ever since I upgraded from Outlook 2000 to Office XP (Outlook 2002, SP-2
on Win 2K), I have been getting lots of errors with one of the two mail
servers I use (Comcast).

The message in the Details box is always some variation of this:
----
Task '2 Comcast - 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). The server responded: ??K'
----
The "server responded" code is sometimes a bit different, but generally
looks like a garbled 'OK'.

There were zero problems with Outlook 2002 on that same server, so I'm
just naturally suspecting what changed: Outlook. While I don't receive
much valid email on that account, it is my only outbound SMTP server,
and messages sometimes backup for a half-day in the Outbox before it
manages to send.

Exiting Outlook and restarting it tends to help, but that's a pretty
painful operating mode.

Anyone have any insights? I've downloaded every patch/upgrade on the MS
site that seems to apply.

Thanks,

George Marshall
