Send/Receive errors in Outlook

Question

Although I have more than 97 GB of memory on my C disk and have no other windows open or other connections, I keep getting the error messages below and it seems to take forever to send and receive e-mail. Is it likely to be a problem with my server, ATT?

Task 'postoffice.worldnet.att.net - Sending and Receiving' reported error (0x8007000E) : 'Out of memory or system resources. Close some windows or programs and try again.'

Also rec'd this message:

Task 'postoffice.worldnet.att.net - Sending' reported error (0x800CCC60) : 'Your outgoing (SMTP) e-mail server has reported an internal error. If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP). The server responded: 12.73.10.64 has too many connections ( 2 ) on mtiwmhc13'

Many thanks.

That '97GB' you're reporting isn't memory.  You may be referring to available drive space, but I can assure you that doesn't equate to memory.  As for the error messages you're getting, they appear to be related to the mail server to which you're attempting to connect, and not to your system.  I'd suggest either contacting your ISP for assistance, or waiting a while and attempting to connect again later on.

the second error obviously refers a problem with the server (your ISP);

as for the 1st error - suspected spyware, maybe? (out of memory or sys resources indicate that you may have a lot of background programs). scan for spyware or viruses.

Your server settings seem wrong. ATT help site has this:

In the Incoming Mail (POP3) field, type ipostoffice.worldnet.att.net
In the Outgoing Mail (SMTP) field, type imailhost.worldnet.att.net

Visit the ATT help site for more instructions.
