I use Outlook Express for my email,but now when I try to send/recieve, I keep getting an error "your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection, possible causes include server problems, network problems. Any ideas why this has just started to happen. Cheers

I usually see that error when the user's firewall is restricting access.

check your firewall settings to see if OE still has permission to send mail.
or it could be a temporary ISP problem

Hi guys, sorry for the delay. Problem is sorted. What it was, I was trying to send emails from my old isp while being logged on to a different isp. I just went into outlook express, and changed outgoing mail smtp to my new isp address. Thanks for your help.
