Task '*** Email address is removed for privacy *** - Receiving' reported error (0x8004210A) : 'The operation timed out waiting for a response from the receiving (POP) server. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP). The server responded: -ERR internal server error (6532)'
I have about 8 email addresses configured to Outlook. Only two of them @sbcglobal.net get the above message. I have Outlook check for messages every minute so sometimes I don't get the above error and Outlook checks messages without any issues and sometimes the script pops up asking to enter a login and password. I'll hit ok and then it's fine. This issue happens a dozen times an hour more or less. Passwords are fine obviously. Other emails I have are @yahoo.com and @charter.net. I also own 3 websites with emails that use the server @secureserver.net. Sometimes the above issue happens with @charter.net but maybe a few times a day. So virtually all other email addresses I do not have an issue with.
I've done quite a bit of troubleshooting. I deleted the profile and started a new one. Still the same above error. I configured the @sbcglobal.net with Windows Live Mail and I get the same error. I went on my other pc and did the same thing, same error.
I call AT&T and had them test my emails. The used both of my @sbcglobal.net email and configured into their email clients and they said they didn't have any problems. My email settings are configured properly. This started happening just over two months ago, I had no issues prior.
I honestly do not know what's wrong and it's rather annoying. I normally don't rely on help in forums as I can mostly do everything myself, but this just makes me pulling my hair out as I don't even have a clue what's causing this.
I think AT&T has an issue with their server or maybe not. It's leading me to believe it's an AT&T problem as my other emails are ok. AT&T says they have no idea what the issue is as they say everything is fine on their end, then they refer me to another department to purchase additional support to help me out with Outlook. I believe it's not Outlook.
So if anyone has any clue on what's going on with these @sbcglobal.net email accounts I would greatly appreciate it.
