I finally fixed this error by running a 'Live Update' session with Norton Internet Security. I believe this is being caused by one of their update patches, but their latest ones seem to fix it. Worked for me..

I have the same problem and this doesnt fix it, i have vista so all the instructions on how to find this pop3uidl.dbx are wrong, i cant beleive i just spent over a grand on this pc and i cant send an email?

Thank you very much. I've trying to fix my email for weeks. I'll just leave email scanning turned off in McAfee, though I may try the pop...dbx idea.

I had real trouble with this errort twice. The first time I fixed it relying on the suggestion that you turn off your virus scan program. The second time that did not work, nor did turning of the pop3uidl file by renaming it. The simple solution I found was to go to my ISP who helped go to the mailbox there and delete all non-essential incoming mail before I opened Outlook Express. That did the trick.

This helped some of my problems with gmail but now I am having other problems. I can send mail to 3 contacts but no more than 3 at a time.

Dear Leo:
I have Windows Vista and I get "Error Number: 0x800CCC19" when sending email - how do I fix it?
I can send emails via webmail of my ISP by not from Windows Mail.
I uninstalled the mail check antivirus. It still does not work.
Please help me.
regards,
ELIAS

-mail. I have a new computer and it now has Windows Live Mail. I get the following message when I try to send an e-mail. your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.

I had the problem with Windows Live Mail. It was just about repairing the installation and it helped. D.

Thanks, Leo. Yesterday, OE didn't like my password and, as you say, Google was my friend. I did as everything suggested, but it didn't fix the problem. I shut down and went to bed. Today, my password was fine, but I got this error instead. I had no intention of messing with AVG as it has always worked beautifully for me, but I opened it up to have a look. I found the databased needed updating, which I duly did. Before doing anything drastic (turning things off or deleting files) I went back to OE. This time everything worked beautifully, and I have just downloaded about 200 messages!
