Cannot import webmail

There is a possibility that while you still had the antivirus software
installed, it corrupted your mail account. Create a new mail account
in Windows Mail, with the same settings as the old account, then
delete the old account.

The more recent error message is a receive error.
Before, you were getting both a send error and a receive error.
Is that still the case? If so, please include a copy of the latest send error.

As far as sending, Comcast supports both port 25 and port 587.
If you are using a portable laptop, you should switch to port 587 for
sending, see
http://www.comcast.net/help/faq/inde...=Emailtop17686
Do not use the SSL option.

You should not have two identical accounts, so delete one.

By any chance, are you using a laptop away from home?

Also, which antivirus program are you using? McAfee and Norton
antivirus are incompatible with Windows Mail. They should be
uninstalled and replaced with a compatible antivirus like the
free version of Avast:

I am using a laptop at home. And I just paid 30.00 for McAfee!!! I was able
to receive mail this a.m. Haven't tried outgoing yet. I will delete one of
the accounts. Thank you, thank you. I am going to the store that I bought
the computer and the McAfee from and ask them why they sold me the McAfee if
it doesn't work with windows mail! I do have my own mail from bellsouth so
will try to figure out how to transfer over to that. Thank you again.

Gary, Saw your post re: Error No. 0x800CCCOD. I hope you can help me, too.
The complete and exact message is: "Windows Mail Errors occurred: The host
'POP3' could not be found. Please verify that you've entered the server name
correctly. Account: 'POP3', Server: 'POP3', Protocol: POP3, Port 110, Secure
(SSL): No, Socket Error: 11001, Error No. 0x800CCCOD." Thanks. Evelyn

You don't have the correct server name... "POP3" is incorrect.
Who provides you with your email account?
Check to see if they have a webpage with the proper server names and any
other required settings.

I believe your ISP is BellSouth. If that is correct, go to Tools, Accounts,
select the account, Properties, Servers, change the name of the
incoming server to mail.bellsouth.net.

Check your other settings with these directions:

Pls help.

The server mail.alpinemarine.com definitely does exist.
It seems your DNS server has a problem resolving host names.
To test that theory, replace the server name with 199.231.136.134.
