emails won't download from server

Anonymous

I am having trouble with Outlook Express 6.0. I use a desktop using XP. I also use the newer Windows Mail on my laptop using Vista. When I travel, I download emails into my Windows Mail on the laptop, but tell it to leave the messages on the server so I can download them to my desktop when I return home. Lately, I have been having trouble getting the email to download onto my home computer. I still get the emails fine on the laptop. I also tried switching identities on the same computer to my wife's email. We both use Comcast. I was able to download her emails fine. When I try to down load emails, I might get one or two messages, and then an error like the following: An unknown error has occurred. Account: 'mail.comcast.net', Server: 'mail.comcast.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800C0133. Can anyone tell me why I am having this problem? Thanks, Mark
