"Connection to server has failed"
Every time my computer comes out of standby, and I try to receive
mail, Outlook Express sends an error message that says connection to sever has failed. I tried closing and reopening Outlook and that does not help. I have to reboot the computer and then it works normally. Anyone know a fix for this? thanks Howard |

Howard: this is not an Outlook Express problem, it is a internet connection
problem. Are you sure that you are connected at that time? wrote in message oups.com...
