Cant access pop3.virginmedia.com

[nigelrod]

Hi,

Just over the last 2-3 days I've been unable to access my pop3.virginmedia.com mail via Outlook.   It comes back with a dialogue box asking me to fill in my details again and again, which have not changed since I set them up. Resultantly I cannot send or receive any email on this account.

Are there problems with this mail server, or do I need to update some settings?

Thanks

Nigel

1) Which email client are you using ?
2) and on what kind of a device ?

3) If it is a mobile with a app - is it possible to tell if that email app has recently been updated & others are seeing the same issues ?

It's on Outlook 2016 MSO Version 2211 running on my Win 10 PC

Have you tried with another device? 

Have you tried accessing by webmail using a browser? 

[nigelrod]

Yes, I can access it via a web browser on the same device. It must be an issue with Outlook.

Thank you

I'd delete the VM connection from Outlook and re-enter it.
