Vista's Window Mail & Windows Live Mail are both giving me this same error:
Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.
Subject 'Testing...delete this (medium attach; 350KB)'
Server: 'smtp.fuse.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0F
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 25
Secure(SSL): No
Socket Error: 10053
If the mail is just text, it usually goes through. A small attachment (60KB'ish) sometimes sends. Any larger attachment always generates the error message
I've disabled my AV's email scan, both for incoming & outgoing messages. It's AVG Free Edition, Ver.8.0.169.
My ISP's help desk says that my setup is correct; that the problem must be a bug in my email client... "call them", they say... It was at their suggestion that I switched from WM to WLM. The problems all seem to have started when the ISP switched my DSL connection
from CAPM mode (using a Cisco 675 modem) to DMT mode (with a Westell 6100 modem). (does anybody know what I just said, there? ...I don't!)
...anybody have any ideas? I'm open to any suggestions at this point.
