LG Allie said that the problem occurred when using Win2k, SP1 *and* LG ZoneAlarm. This isn't a query in my mind at all. I used ZoneAlarm without Win2k's service pack without problems. When I applied service pack 1, ZoneAlarm broke and I stopped using it. We were later informed of a patch being available to fix the SP1 issue which I and others installed. It seemed to work just fine but many, though not all of us, continued to have subtle network connection problems and problems with TB!.

I'll just say that the problem seems to have been solved now by putting the mail-servers in the Advanced dialog. Thanks to Marck for helping me out. As a final note I will say that I am using ZoneAlarm 2.1.44 so there isn't any help in upgrading to it. Will also say that this is the only problem I have had with ZoneAlarm and I have been running that for probably over a year now.

Problem fetching mail.
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hello. I am a new user of The Bat! so I do not know if this problem has been discussed on this list before. If so I hope that you will forgive that and maybe point me in to a place where I can find the solution. The problem is that I have trouble fetching mail. When I start my PC and The Bat! everything seems OK, but after a while I can't fetch more mail. The connections just times out with an error-message: "FETCH - Could not connect to server." (I think that is it.) If I then exit The Bat! and restart it again I can check my mail from one of the accounts one time, but no more. Then I get the problem again. It seems to crop up after I have been surfing the net for a while or reading news. I am using Using The Bat! v1.51 on Windows NT 5.0 Build 2195 Service Pack 1. I use IE5.5 as a browser and XNews v4.01.30 for news. I hope you can help me with this as if not I have just wasted $35 paying for software I can't use. That reminds me that the problem also seems to have appeared after I registered the program as I did not have any of these problems in the trial-period. I have formatted my HD and reinstalled Win2K and The Bat! but it did not help. I have also downloaded all the Security fixes, upgrades and compatibility stuff that Microsoft provides on their Windowsupdate site. Hope anybody can help me with this problem as I am stuck.
