Using the settings
POP3.boltblue.com and Smtp.ntlworld.com everything has worked fine for 5 years plus. Until now........Error Message below.
Unable to send or receive messages for the Dave.xxxxxxxx account. Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.
Server: 'pop3.boltblue.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0F

Can anybody offer any advice ? Support@boltblue.com seems to have closed down!
Thanks |
Interesting.
The Boltblue pop server is hosted on an Amazon Cloud system, that could be the issue.
host pop3.boltblue.com
pop3.boltblue.com has address 174.129.220.64
