I ran the port query tool and got:
============================================= Starting portqry.exe -n 127.0.0.1 -e 995 -p TCP ... Querying target system called: 127.0.0.1 Attempting to resolve IP address to a name... IP address resolved to xxxxx querying... TCP port 995 (pop3s service): NOT LISTENING portqry.exe -n 127.0.0.1 -e 995 -p TCP exits with return code 0x00000001. Same results for ports 25 and 110. So how do I fix this? I've tried adding these ports to the exceptions list in windows firewall. Windows mail is already in that list. I disabled the firewall, antivirus email scanning... None of that did anything. I keep getting The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'MSN', Server: 'pop3.email.msn.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 995, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10060, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E Help. ----piaqt |

So how do I fix this? From what I can see, you are "qasking" your computer if it is *listening* for _incoming_ connections on ports 25,110 and 995. You "fix" it, by installing a local mail server om you computer.......... /HC |
