Checking for mail error

Most of the time my mail comes ok after the initial check but sometimes when
it goes to do it's 18 minute check a yellow triangle with ! in the middle &
error after it appears. Is it a problem with mail or do I not have enough
space or something?

If I manually hit "Send/Receive after a minute a box appears saying "Your
POP3 server has not responded in 60 seconds" etc then the next 18 minute
check it starts all over again.

Re: Checking for mail error

If you click on "Error", you should be able to see the error
message. Click on it, then copy and paste it into a reply to this
post. It sounds like a server problem, though.
