said i had 8 messages in my in-box but they were not displayed and i was not
able to access them through windows mail . this is the message i get:
An unknown error has occurred. Account: '', Server:
'incoming.verizon.net', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error

help, please!

The mail account may be corrupted. One thing you should try as a
possible quick fix is to delete that corrupted mail account, restart
Windows Mail, then recreate that account.

If that doesn't fix it, more drastic measures will have to be taken.
Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.
