JerryS Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Hi I'm suddenly getting connection terminated errors logging in to my spam cop POP3 box (pop.spamcop.net). Webmail works okay. Any advice!? Thanks. Jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevenUnderwood Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 This has been mentioned in another thread http://forum.spamcop.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=448 under the subject: Webmail Login fails, Unable to login to webmail It seems like the POP server is down as I can see port 80 open, but not 110. I have not seem any message that JT has been notified, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petzl Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Norton is often the culprit after it updates Happens to me once in every while then you lose POP ability (reboot is the answer) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff G. Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 Norton is often the culprit after it updates Happens to me once in every while then you lose POP ability (reboot is the answer) Which Norton product does this? If it's on a PC running WinNT or better, have you tried just restarting its Service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JerryS Posted February 23, 2004 Author Share Posted February 23, 2004 Thanks guys, it fixed itself here (no reboot, just started working again; don't think the problem was my end, since I have about six other non-spamcop POP3 boxes, and they were all working fine).

StevenUnderwood Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 I'm not experiencing this symptom. And to clear up what I was posting... I do not have a POP client available to me here, so I was doing manual testing from my Win2K box... And I still get the same result, so that may be on my side: telnet pop.spamcop.net 110 Connecting To pop.spamcop.net...Could not open a connection to host on port 110 : Connect failed I had also done a port test for POP3 and came up empty, so I ASSUMEd the service was having problems when no one posted here or in the other thread it was working. PLEASE forgive me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wazoo Posted February 23, 2004 Share Posted February 23, 2004 don't feel too bad . I had finished up typing in a response in another Topic here, hit the "add reply" button .... little blue progress bar seemed to take forever, then I got sent to an error page, talking about the SMTP error I'd just ran into ????? Did a "Back" click, and got shown a screen to "add a reply" and the one I'd just sent was showing as the most recently added comment ..??? There may yet be something found that's runnin 'round <g> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petzl Posted February 24, 2004 Share Posted February 24, 2004 You should complain to Symantec about that. I notice others have found this with Norton also, as to complaining to Symantec Will look at a better virus program next time (Sophos) :angry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
