POP & SMTP verizon email not working since 11/12

Windows LiveMail & Outlook stopped working w/ my verizon email accts. several days ago. Settings are correct, have validated numerous times. Tried repairing Windows Live Essentials, etc. The only way I can get my verizon email is to use a web browser.
Tried disabling Bitdefender Total Security 2015 firewall & antivirus but no change. There's no virus or trojan on the laptop.
Tried pinging smtp.verizon.net and pop.verizon.net. Request timed out on both.
Windows Live Mail error:
Unable to send or receive messages for the Verizon (----) account. The connection to the server has failed.
Server: 'pop.verizon.net'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0E
Protocol: POP3
Port: 995
Secure(SSL): Yes
Socket Error: 10060
Thoughts?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi, the resolve for me was to change mail clients. Windows LiveMail, despite repairing Windows Essentials 2012 had hit the wall. I switched to Thunderbird which worked w/ my verizon mail accts. I also changed my Verizon web mail setting to save the sent mail on the server. Apparently that made a difference. Without that switched on my mail would not come into a mail client anymore. Despite everything working perfectly for years and no changes on my end (that I'm aware of). Also would not rule out a Windows Update that could have caused this, as they install automatically.

  • Exchange email not working since update

    Help! Before the update, my POP accounts weren't working (wasn't receiving new email unless I turn phone off and back on). Now POP seems to be working, but my corporate Exchange account is totally not working. There is a (new) yellow banner message that appears in email list saying Connecting to Server. And then it seems to get stuck there. It somehow downloaded 1 message (the first one that came in) since the update of my phone this morning. But since, it won't Push any more email.
    Also, I think my GPS got worse. When I was outside earlier (granted, I was around tall buildings) it wouldn't get a lock--not even after 5 minutes. WIll have to test further.

    Thanks for the tip.
    I was having the same problem, although it was kinda nice in a way not to be getting instant email notification.
    But I'm back to normal.
    Uninstalled and installed and my nose is back on the grindstone.

  • Threaded Email NOT working since upgrading to Lion

    Threaded emails were working fine until I upgraded to Lion.  I have even done a fresh reinstall, enabled classic view, organize by conversation, and adjusted the view setting in the preferneces to include related messages.
    While my replies are grouped together, the other persons are group on their own and NOT bundled with mine.  I am using IMAP, NO Rules in place on the server OR on Mail.app.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

  • Verizon email not working on new iphone 5

    I upgraded to a iphone 5 from a iphone 4.  All works perfectly, except my Verizon email.  I matched my email settings from the iphone 4, called support, googled the problem, and still cannot get it to work.  Keeps saying, 'username and password are incorrect'.  I changed my password via the internet, and still the same.  Help!

    I have an iPad 2 with iOS 8.1.3
    No problems receiving and sending VZ Email
    Please see attachment.
    Suggest you turn iPad OFF completely and turn it back ON BEFORE doing attachment see if that solves prob.
    PS above procedure also works for my iPhone 5

  • Push email not working since purchasing iPhone 3G

    Yesterday I bought an iPhone 3G to upgrade from my old iPhone. With the old iPhone and 2.0 installed, push email worked fine, as did the calendar and contacts to the most part.
    When setting my new iPhone up, I told it to set up like my old iPhone which it did, but now push mail is not working. Calendar and contacts are fine, just mail. I've tried switching things on and off, restarting the phone, etc. but all to no avail. I've even deleted the MobileMe (who ever names these things should be shot... from now on I will call it iTools!) account, and recreated it using the assitant on the iPhone, but still nada... I still have to fetch the emails.
    Anyone got any ideas. Thanks.

    iTools would be a stupid name too. It is not a set of tools, it is a set of features for your MOBILE phone. and it's like Microsoft Exchange whose first letters are M and E. i'm sure that ain't their reason, but it's just fine by me.
    As for your problem, I've had some intermittent problems with my mobileme email being pushed as well. i'd say about 75% of the time it works (98.2% of statistics are randomly made up on the spot, including all those in this message!). i just chalk it up to growing pains and hope it fixes itself soon or i'll go back to my Exchange server which has been flawless so far.

  • Email not working since Friday

    My Mail program is not working. No messages showing in any boxes. I've tried restarting computer. I click on get mail...the ball just spins and spins. Nothing happens. Safari and everything else works fine. If I go to my internet provider, I can access my incoming email just fine. I've checked connection, preferences, etc. Don't know what to do...Any ideas anyone.
    Thanks.

    I ended up trying everything listed. Nothing worked...then I found a listing that mentioned going onto the utilities and running Ping. I did this and shutdown the computer and returned a few hours later and voila...my program now works...I don't know which worked, but thank you everyone for your help. I've learned a few things in the process. I sure hope this doesn't happen again....it brings back horrible PC memories that I am trying to forget.

  • Blackberry Storm2 - brand new took at Hazlet,NJ Verizon Store - not working since 2nd day!

    I bought this nice BB Storm2 GSM Phone from one of the direct Verizon's own stores in Hazlet, NJ (Route 35), because I was in need of making calls from abroad to US and other places on business and personal calls.  The unit was working fine on the 1st day, and while I was traveling on the 2nd day in Paris - it simply stopped working!...
    (* I have a small bit of ditsy/bitsy doubt that they gave me an old one...But I am not sure...and now I cannot even prove it to them! - but don't know what to do and get exchange for a brand new - sealed one!
    First, I thought the battery must have drained out (although I was suspicious because I just charged fully the day I bought it and I hardly made a few calls only).  
    Then, I  took the battery out and  cleaned and waited for some time...3-5 minutes...and then I put it back. It did not make any difference. 
    The phone seems to be kind of getting some charge..The screen is trying to light itself showing the bottom buttons as if they are ready to operate...But the screen is completely blank...nothing is coming no matter what button I press...
    I tried several time regarding the battery exercise...But still nothing has changes..My cell is just 2 days old..And this high-tech...freaking device is giving me problems.  Now I am traveling all over the places and I don't even have any phone. 
    Shame on BB,...Very poor quality! They look pretty ,..but don't deliver real service
    Dont know what do do and get help from Verizon. Any body can shed some light...what to do if I am outside the US on a business trip. 

    Try this, put a small strip of something like a Manila folder cut to battery's thickness so you can get the bat. door back on the back edge of battery and see if that creates enough pressure on bat. to work.  I remember a problem when the S2 first came out that the battery's were a hair to short and kept causing the S2 to reboot.  

  • Email not working since changing phones

    Switched phones last week with daughter. She bought new one and I took hers. Phone is the same as what I had, Samsung Rogue. Since activating her phone on my line the email and BA will not load on phone. Comes up with this message for both apps,: License not found.Insert the card used to download this app.
    This happens everytime I go to Media Center>Browse & Download>Mobil Email or backup Assistant.
    What card is it talking about?  I never used a card on my other phone when I downloaded these apps two yrs ago.
    I'm not too worried about BA but I would like to keep getting my emails. I have been to BA online and that did no good. It would not sinc up with my phone, tho it did sinc to my email but would not push it to the phone .
    Thanks for any advice.

    Good Morning, Smitty2445!!
    Easiest solution, if possible, is to reactivate the phone on your daughter's line, then remove the application. Activate it back to your phone number and re-download and begin the Backup Assistant process.  Or if you don't mind doing a master reset, that will fix the license error too!  It will erase the phone back to factory default settings.
    Activation Steps
    Master Reset - Samsung Rogue SCH-u960
    Have a great day!

  • MX Records added to business catalyst but email not working since site was taken offline (subsequently put back online) by registrar.

    Hi.
    We've been experiencing some issues sending and receiving email since 1and1 took our domain name down. We've now got the site back live (check devonshiremarkets.com) but emails are still not being received. I have been informed the MX records have not been propagated for the domain name.
    Check MX Lookup Tool - Check your DNS MX Records online - MxToolbox and search the domain devonshiremarkets.com. You should see no MX records are associated with the domain name.
    Under the business catalyst management section the MX records have been correctly assigned to google apps MX records as follows.
    ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM (Priority 1, TTL 3600)
    ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM (Priority 5, TTL 3600)
    ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM (Priority 5, TTL 3600)
    ALT3.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM (Priority 10, TTL 3600)
    ALT4.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM (Priority 10, TTL 3600)
    Is there any reason why our email is still down and what do we have to do to get it fixed?

    As I checked the MX records are updated , take a look :
    Are you still facing the same issue?

  • Work Email Not Working Since Updated to iOS5 on iPhone4

    Just updated my iphone4 to iOS 5 but my work email is no longer syncing properly.  It shows all old emails prior to update and sync but nothing new since.  Suggestions?

    I'm assuming that by "outlook server" you mean a Microsoft Exchange Server?
    If so and it's Exchange 2010 can you browse to OMA or OWA on it with the phone browser?
    In my case(I'm the Network Engineer where I work so I have some experience with this)the URL is:
    http://mail.companyname.com/owa or http://mail.companyname.com/OMA.
    If that doesn't work try this, on a computer at which you can access the OWA site click on Option(under your name on the upper right hand side) Then when the screen changes you should see 'Phone' listed under accounts on the left. Click on Phone and in the main body area of the page it will list all the phones that you've connected with. If there are any outdated ones there, delete them. Also, do you see a connection attempt for your current phone there? FYI the reason I'm reccomending this is that Exchange, depending on how it is configured, could see your phone as a different device with the OS change.

  • Work email not working since update

    My work email is on an outlook server. Since the update last night, I discovered I received no emails on my phone. (might be a good thing). but when I try to look at the servers on my phone, it says, "couldn't open connection to server". Thought I would delete that email and start over....ooops, now it won't let me complete adding that account without that message.

  • Email not working since adding gmail account

    Hello,
    I added a 3rd Gmail account into my Apple email client.
    Now, my rules don't work?
    Emails with subject or from people should be automatically moved into folders, but this has stopped working.
    I added some new rules today to test, and nothing happens.
    Also, I manually move the emails into a folder and I have to move the email twice before the email disappears from my email inbox?
    Please help.

    I ended up trying everything listed. Nothing worked...then I found a listing that mentioned going onto the utilities and running Ping.

  • Email not working since Yosemite upgrade

    After upgrading to Yosemite, I couldn't receive emails on my Mac, but I could on iPad and iPhone.  After 2 hours on the phone with Apple, it was discovered the fix for the problem was with my internet provider.  Once we got in touch with them, they fixed it in a matter of seconds.

    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks or Yosemite without erasing drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD:
    Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, or Yosemite
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
