Live Mail will Not Download Gmail Accounts

My LiveMail has consisted of 2 POP Gmail accounts ever since I downloaded
LiveMail over a year ago. Recently LiveMail stopped downloading all of my
POP Gmail emails.

I received an email from my carrier, Verizon, indicating they would no
longer be using Port 25 and that everyone should change to Port 587 before
November 17th. This I have done but it also does not work. I also tried
Port 465 to no avail. (I can receive AOL IMAAP emails which uses Port 25
for outgoing mail.)

I also tried using IMAP on Gmail but it also does not work. Below is the
LM message I get for Gmail when the emails are downloading:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Gmail xxxx account. The
connection to the server has failed.

Server: 'pop.gmail.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0E
Protocol: POP3
Port: 995
Secure(SSL): Yes
Socket Error: 10060

It appears the problem may be with Port 995( ?).

Thank you.

works OK for me; I have outgoing port set to 495 and incoming to 995.

sorry, it is 465 for outgoing. My OTHER message gave the wrong port number

Bob, I thank you for your reply, however as you can see by the notice 995 is
not working for me.

For Gmail POP3, port 995 with SSL is the correct setting.

The error message you are getting
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0E
Socket Error: 10060
says that connection timed out while trying to connect.

You say "Recently LiveMail stopped downloading ***all*** of my POP Gmail
emails." Does that mean you are getting some your mail?

Does that mean that sometimes you get mail and sometimes you get the
error message?

Did you make any security software changes around the time it stopped
working? New firewall, major firewall upgrade, settings change, new
anti-virus, major anti-virus upgrade or settings change? Using
Anti-spam program?

Your firewall could potentially be blocking port 995, but that would be
unusual.

If your anti-virus is set to scan e-mail as it downloads, that would be
a common cause of your problem. With some anti-virus (and anti-spam)
programs, simply disabling the e-mail scanning function doesn't really
disable it. It simply tells the program not to flag any messages. It
still processes all the messages and may still cause send/receive
problems. What you may need to do is uninstall the anti-virus program,
then reinstall it using a custom install option and unselect the e-mail
scanning component for installation.
