Outlook Express Blocked

[hank1365]

I deleted McAfee and I'm now blocked from from receiving emails on Outlook
Express. I get the following message
The connection to the server has failed. Account: 'HANK EISNER', Server:
'127.0.0.1', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10061,
Error Number: 0x800CCC0E
What do i need to do to reconnect? I do not have the ME discs to reinstall.
Help appreciated. Mark

Go to your email provider's site and follow the instructions for setting up
your email account on Outlook Express. Specifically the server settings need
reapplying (to e.g. pop.tiscali.com or who ever your provider is), but quite
possibly other settings as well.

Or possibly you could reinstall McAfee then uninstall it again but removing
it's email checking feature first. How did you 'delete' it? If you
uninstalled it you should use that term, not 'deleted', because if you
really did delete it, that will almost certainly be the reason you have this
problem. On the other hand, it is McAfee...

Start Outlook Express, click "Tools", "Accounts", "Mail", double-click the
affected mail account, click "Servers" and make sure the information is
correct. If it isn't, correct it and click "OK", then "Close".

Your problem has nothing to do with Win Me, all that is required is to enter
the correct address for the mail server you are using. Open Outlook
Express, Tools | Accounts, select your mail account, click Properties and
then open the servers tab and restore the correct address for your mail
server, for example, pop3.myisp.com. McAfee replaced this with 127.0.0.1
and didn't restore it when uninstalled.
