Outlook Express: Unable to connect to the mail server! (error 0x800CCC90)

original title: Outlook Express: unable to connect to the mail server!

Im trying to get my outlook express to receive and send messages from my live.com account but it comes back with: the server responded with an error. Account: "Live.com', Protocol: POP3, server response:'-ERR AVG POP3 Proxy Server: cannot connect to the mail server!', Port: 110, secure (SSL): no, Server error: 0x800CCC90, error number: 0x800CCC90."

Someone knows how to fix this? I tried to remove and add the account again using IMAP instead of POP3, but still get an error message, the e-mail address and the password are all correct and I think that ive got the right to Server (live.com?) Im not exactly computer so any help would be greatly appreciated.

You will find the right settings for an account on this page live.com: send and receive Hotmail from an e-mail application. To change your settings, select Tools > accounts > {account} > properties and make right onto the tabs of servers and Advanced entries.

[I moved your question on the forum just for Outlook Express issues.] You should not notice a difference].

    Good evening
    Today, I tried to download my emails in Windows Mail. I got the following error message:

    The problem is that you allow your antivirus to mess with your email. Which is not recommended for the reasons explained here:
    http://thundercloud.NET/infoave/tutorials/email-scanning/index.htm

    Chances are, AVG antivirus was installed with the default installation option. If so, uninstall, then reinstall, but select 'custom' install, which then allows you to deselect install his embarrassing module scan to email.

    While AVG is uninstalled, then try Windows Mail, just to check that the culprit has been found.

  • "Unable to connect to the Skype server" error on samsung wave 723

    I got Skype Lite (or the Java thing, whatever we call it - does not allow calls - only CAT) on my Samsung Wave 723 for more than six months. Earlier this week he suddenly disconnected me and when I tried to log in again it showed this error "Unable to connect to the server of Skype." almost immediately after, I started signing in. I tried to reset the settings in Skype, my phone settings, I took out the battery and reset even WiFi. Then I tried to connect with a few other WiFis - still the same error. My friend has the same version of Skype Lite on his cell phone, and it works very well and without errors.

    Anyone know how to fix this error? It is urgent, please.

    Solved the problem on my phone. I just had to add the area code to my phone number in the connection menu.

    @yousef8824: I downloaded my Skype Java one of those ages of links it is a. not useful at this time.

  • Unable to connect to the mail server

    When I initially try to access online e-mail I get this error message

    My internet service provider, Time Warner, making sure that it is a problem with Windows Live Mail.

    Any suggestions?

    You probably entered the wrong server name. Because you transcribed the error message instead of copy paste, we do not see what is wrong. RR help pages:

    The address of the outgoing mail (SMTP) server is:

    SMTP - server.ec.rr.com

    The address of the incoming (POP3) mail server is:

    pop - server.ec.rr.com

    Right-click on the account name in the folders pane, and then select Properties. Make the changes under the servers tab.

    If this does not help, please click on the error message to select it, and then use a right click to copy and paste in your response.

  • Outlook express hangs after the connection with the mail server

    OE6 hangs after the connection with the mail server?

    Make sure that the other machine is not check that the server so often a machine is not problems because it cannot be verified.

    Try to delete the account, compact the folders and close OE and reopen it and add the account back again.  Also make sure that the antivirus software is not interfere (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).

    You can also telnet to the server directly from this computer to see if it works (see http://techhelp.santovec.us/pop3telnet.htm).

    Sometimes it gets stuck in a message on the server and it can not get downloaded by OE, so it may be necessary to remove the message from the server, but if the other machine got, maybe it's not the question.

    Hello

    Looking for help on this one...

    I have a new install of windows 7 pro running, and I was not able to get the guide to download Windows Media Center.   I am up-to-date with all the updates and SP1 version running.   My video card drivers are also updated.

    I use HDHOMERUN PRIME equipment with cablecard and who receives a TV signal very well and I am able to view it in WMC.    I use Verizon FIOS and my zip code is 07452.    Before this computer, I ran the cablecard even with a ceton infinitv and had no problem Guide at all.

    It's just that I can't download the guide data.  Its just totally blank.   I receive the channels and view them, but there is NO data.      Whenever I run the TV setup the same question comes up.  Cannot download the initial configuration data due to the error of previous download.   As far as I know, there is NO error message when Windows installed... actually... I reinstalled windows completely and this has not solved the problem.    I tried to manually download the guide which did not help.   It... nothing happened when I turned 'on' and 'off' WMC in Control Panel to reinstall.  I even tried explore the ehome folder and remove the file db... but nothing is helping.

    I can't find a file mcupdate.exe light on my system - don't know if this is relevant.   When I looked in the event viewer here are some of the error messages that I see.

    Hi and welcome to the Forums!

    Can you please clarify? You say that you cannot connect to the server, and then you say that WiFi is perfect. Can say you it was OK until yesterday. So I'm confused about what you are who do... is it via WiFi or via your carrier connection data?

    Each time a random strange behavior or slow creeps, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the hood back and remove the battery. Wait a minute, then replace the battery and cover. Power on and wait patiently through the long reboot - about 5 minutes. See if things return to functioning. Like all computing devices, BB suffers from memory leaks and others... with a hard reboot is the best remedy.

    Best!
