I just tried to set up windows mail on my laptop to open my school mail
account, following the directions on the schools website. However, when I
tried to open my mail in windows mail I recieved an error message that said
that 'the connection to the server has failed. Your IMAP command could not be
sent to the server, due to non-network errors. This could, for example,
indicate a lack of memory on your system.'
I don't have any problem using my internet normally to browse or viewing my
email through a browser window and I also don't have the 'log on using Secure
password Authentication' box checked.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!! |

Which antivirus are you running?
Windows Mail is not compatible with most McAfee or
Norton security programs. Those will need to be
uninstalled, not just disabled.
After uninstalling your non-compatible antivirus, download
and install a more compatible antivirus like the free Avast:
http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html
Even compatible antivirus programs will need to have their
email scanning option turned off. For more on this topic see

I don't have either of those running on my computer, I have Trend Micro
PC-Cillin. And for that I turned off the Spam Email filter because it was
the only email-headed thing that I found when i looked through everything
earlier.

I take it you have an IMAP account? I'm not as fluent with IMAP
troubleshooting as I am with POP issues. Can you share with us
the school website where you got the setup instructions?

shidordzik7, I don't see a detailed problem description from you in this thread.
I only see Jessica's problem description.
It is always best to start your own new thread instead of hijacking someone
else's.
