Security causing mail problems


Guest SStone

Recommended Posts

Guest SStone

Cannot reply, forward or send attachments. Have worked on this for 2 days

within the Windows Mail Forum. Something is causing a delay in getting mail

to the server. This appears to have something to do with security. Has anyone

seen a resolution?

 

Details -

Unable to send mail problem was sporadic. Had Norton 2007. Took it in to

tech support for service and they upgraded to 2008. At forum suggestion,

deleted Norton and used the symantec utility to remove the remaining pieces.

Replaced Norton with CA Suite. One person thought the Norton proxy may not be

able to be removed.

My ISP is RoadRunner high speed over cable. Have checked all setting w/RR.

Inbound, outbound servers work. RR does not cross over servers nor do they

block any ports. I am able to send anything through their webmail with no

problem.

Error:

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for

this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of

inactivity. Subject 'Re: Email issues?', Account: 'pop-server.stny.rr.com',

Server: 'smtp-server.stny.rr.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No,

Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

 

If no security fix is known, any others ideas where to look for solution?

Do I need to do a system restore from my disks?

Just a thought. Sometimes it's hard for your eye to pick up an error, and

here it's crucial that all the entries are perfect. If you have in fact

"checked everything", then delete the account, find the rr help setup page,

and remake a new rr account.

Bob, thanks for your suggestion. That was one of the first things I did on

Friday to be sure something wasn't messed in RR setup.

Then I deleted and set-up my account three times last night on my machine to

be absolutely certain. Next, I set myself up (using same rr account info) on

my husband's XP machine. The set-up works fine on his machine.

 

If that's not what you were suggesting, please let me know. I'm looking for

all possibilities. Thanks!

 

By the way, this problem happens with both Windows Mail and Live Mail. The

forum team suggested getting a new email program, and since it's happening

with 2 email programs, I suspect security conflict.

If you have a modem and a router, trying turning them off for a minute, then

back on.

To do it "by the book", you turn off your PC, router and modem, then turn

them back on in the reverse order.

 

I've had a problem with the RR DNS servers lately, but I don't think that's

your problem... you can access sites on the internet ok, can't you?

Know what you mean about the RR servers. When this started happening

sporadically 3 weeks ago, that's what I suspected.

 

I was excited to try resetting the modem and router. Sadly, no change. Oh

well. But thank you for the idea!

Forgot to answer the question. I'm having no problem on the internet or with

receiving mail. It's only this "time out" problem with replies, forward and

attachments. Some conflict is causing it to hang.

Have you tried disabling e-mail virus scanning?

....or setting a longer timeout?

Yes, that's the weird thing. Most people find this problem gets fixed when

they disable antivirus email scanning. Someone wondered if a piece of Norton

was stuck... I believed they said that some email program proxies stay in the

machine even after you delete the software and run the clean-up utility.

 

I also made sure that Windows Mail is an allowed program in the firewall.

It turned out that Webroot Spysweeper has a realtime email shield to protect

fron "attachments" that I found by accident. When it was unchecked, email

worked again.

As long as the e-mail program doesn't point to the proxy,

the existence of the proxy doesn't matter. You need to

trace the path from the e-mail program's output to the

port for the SMTP server just to make sure there is no

onboard software proxy.

 

Don't ask me how - I'm trying to familiarize myself with

Vista as it is. Some things are easy to find, and some

seem navigationally counterintuitive even after you stumble

across their location. Even "search" and "help" seem very

awkward.
