Hello, I am getting extremely frustrated... I have recently installed Office 2010 Professional Plus and had set up my Outlook 2010 and all was working fine. I had received my e-mails and had no issues. My four pop3 accounts stopped working a couple days ago now and NO SETTINGS were changed in my Outlook setting that I am aware of. I have verified and re-verified my account settings... They are fine for my pop3 accounts...
I was receiving a Send / Receive Error as listed below --
Task (1) - Receiving' reported error (0x80042108) : 'Outlook cannot connect to your incoming (POP3) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).'
I have been reading some of the articles here and have been trying different things: Here is a little bit about my system --
Windows 7 64 bit. My Office Pro is 32 bit.
I am running Zone Alarm and AdAware. (I checked everything with their setting and Outlook and ALL MS products are allowed to operated).
I have deleted ALL four of my accounts and only have one account installed in my Outlook currently. With that, I am now Able to SEND but not able to receive.
HERE IS THE STRANGE PART ---
If I go through into the Control Panel, then to User Accounts and Family Safety, and Mail (32-bit) inside that screen. If I open up the Mail Setup-Outlook I see the only account I have installed still in Outlook 2010. If I test the Account Setting from here... IT WORKS! Both Send and Receive. Now I did the Same thing with ALL my other account still installed in Outlook 2010 and they too ALL WORKED!
Huh, I thought my issue was resolved and go into Outlook 2010 and run a Send Receive and guess... I get the Same Send Receive Error: Opening up the Accounts Menu inside Outlook and Testing My Accounts through Outlook 2010 and Send / Receive produces an Error like below.
Task (1) - Receiving' reported error (0x80042108) : 'Outlook cannot connect to your incoming (POP3) e-mail server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).'
WHY...?? I am not sure what is going on but want to throw my computer out the window... (Only Kidding!) But I have tried everything I know and have even called for assistance in an Online Computer Assistance... (Bad MOVE!) But I want to get my Outlook working again! I had Outlook Professional 2007 Installed and NEVER had any issues before this...
I hope someone can help me...
Thank you in advance,
Darius
