Windows Mail telling me connection lost and unable to receive emails.

original title: How can I receive emails?

I have Vista home basic system. I use Windows Mail to receive emails. Use for at least 5 years. Recently I get the error message saying my connection lost. Cannot receive emails. I can send.

It could be your ISP server is on the fritz or your antivirus software has got the update and broke things.  Check www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 and also check your account via webmail if you can to check what is not not a problem on the server side.  Alternatively, you can try to compact and repair the database to try and solve the problem (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).

    I have a question regarding windows mail. I was send and receive mail with no problems until last Thursday. I can still receive mail, but I can not send. My email is with bellsouth.net and comes in my computer through windows Messaging.  I spent an hour and a half on the phone with bellsouth, and they say that the problem is with my windows mail.  I tried to use a restore date, and that did not help either. I will post a copy of this message, as I keep getting.  Your server suddenly put an end to the connection. The possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity. Object 't', counts: 'mail.bellsouth.net', server: 'mail.bellsouth.net', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, secure (SSL): no, error number: 0x800CCC0F thanks for any help.

    Sometimes, WinMail settings get screwed up and you must remove the account and then add it back back.  Make sure first that the antivirus software not interfere (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).   Delete your account completely, then close WinMail.  Then compact and repair the database of WinMail (see www.oehelp.com/WMUtil/).  Add your account to mail back once again, and then make sure you have the correct settings under Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Servers and | Advanced to what AT & T Specifies to WinMail (or OE).  Then see if it works.

  • Problem with windows mail send not of pictures and attachments? Help, please!

    Hello, yesterday I continued to get an error code when you try to update some security updates, I've used the tutorial help and went and deleted some file deep into my system, as he ordered.  He has not yet fixed the error and now my windows mail will not send attachments and the police to the address info seem different?  I'm lost, please help!

    Hi Pishy,

    1. what was the error code that you received when you try updates security?

    2. what tutorial did you delete files?

    3. what happens when you try to send emails with attachments? You receive messages or error codes?

    You can try to perform a restore of the system to a prior restore point you have been affected by the issue.

    Note: When you perform the system restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.

    To run the system restore, you can consult the following link:

    System restore

    Very often, it is due to an intermittent server problem and not a problem with your computer.  You should contact the provider of messaging and see there are problems.  See also if you can connect via webmail and if it works.  If so, then try to set up a second copy of your account and see if it works.  Also beware of interference antivirus: see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3 and it can help to compact and repair the database of WinMail (see www.oehelp.com/WMUTil/)

  • Windows Mail could not connect to the server. ErrorOx800CCC92. Server accepts no username or password.

    This could be a problem of 'Orange', but all that is worth a go.  When I logged in yesterday the Windows Mail came into 'Authorising officer' and then stopped. Upward came a box asking for the username and password that I gave, noresponse and the box reappeared.  The zone mail server gives error Ox800CCC92.  If anyone has any clues, I would be grateful.

  • Exchange server and Surface RT, can I use Mail app to connect to the Exchange Server for email (the same question is for contacts or people and calendar)?

    Hello

    Our company uses an Exchange Server for email, contacts and calendar.

    Can I use Mail app to connect to the Exchange Server for email (the same question is for contacts or people and calendar)?

    Kind regards

    Matej

    You must install the SSL certificate before connect you to the Regional service, the easiest way is to go to "desktop" IE10 open, go to the exchange server web access page, click on the notification of "certificate error" red and view / install the store "certificate authorities roots of trust." Then, make sure that your surface RT complies with the minimum requirements of security then connect to the exchange via the mail application server.

  • BlackBerry Smartphones unable to receive emails

    Hello

    I got my Blackberry Curve 8900 for 6 or 7 months without any problem since last night, I was unable to receive emails (apart from my t-mobile e-mail account), but I can send emails from all accounts. I deleted my accounts and configure them again and received the confirmation message that they are working, but still no emails coming. I tried to ring the support of T-Mobile (UK), but all I get is a message saying due to the large number of calls to the technical support they currently have to ring back later.

    I also cut the phone, removed the battery etc but nothing works. Any suggestions?

    Will there be a break in the Blackberry service in the United Kingdom?

  • opening windows mail ask me a username and password

    Could not connect in windows mail

    This is Windows mail.  Windows Live Mail can be a little different, but the solution may be similar, unless your problem is unable to connect to Windows Live in the first place?

    Your settings are correct for your type of e-mail account?  Most ISPs do not require a box checked for a secure connection.  They do need to have a legitimate user name (email address) and a password.

    In Windows Mail, check tools / accounts / mail / xxxxxx to your email provider / properties / servers, there are two checkboxes at the bottom (for the logon and authentication) which if are checked, you can try to remove the tick.

    Your ISP should be able to help you in this case, because they know what settings you need.

  • I entered the wrong names for servers on my windows mail how to change them and what are the good names

    I was installing windows mail thinking I was to catch up with the names for them (George and Sam)

    On behalf of email configuration, you don't "make things upward. All information must be accurate and approved by your ISP.
    You must as a result of your Internet Service Provider (ISP)...
    Your user name
    Your E-mail address
    Your password
    Name of the incoming server
    The name of the outgoing server

    After graduating from those, ask if the person can help you set up the email account. Once I got a new ISP and I also need help to connect to the wireless connection. I gave permission to access my computer remotely, and the person has had enough to set everything to me.
    If this is not possible, ask if there is a site that can teach you how to set up the account.

    OR, you can use this tutorial...

    As I pointed out, sometimes turning off the analysis e-mail messages is not sufficient. That still leaves his hooks in there. Analysis of the e-mail may be harmless for a long time and then it throws an update of Kaspersky. Please remove Kaspersky, restart and then reinstall in custom mode and remove analysis when it is presented e-mail messages.

    Other than that, the only thing I can think is your modem or router. That's assuming that all of your settings are correct.
