POP3 email

For the last two days I have been unable to send or receive emails using my POP3 address. I have not changed any settings and am at a loss as it is my business address.

This is the error

"An unknown error has occurred. Subject 'Re: PKC0011914 - 2011914 - E-TEC R - Documentazione integrativa', Account: 'pop3.*************.co.uk', Server: 'smtp.talktalk.net', Protocol: SMTP, Server Response: '421 Cannot connect to SMTP server 62.24.202.43 (62.24.202.43:25), connect error 10060', Port: 25, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 421, Error Number: 0x800CCC67"

The problem is because you've not changed any settings. Your email software is still using insecure settings.

 

If you saw the message from TalkTalk advising "Our records show that you are still accessing your email using unencrypted email settings, because of this you will no longer be able to receive or send emails via this email app or software" then the email address receiving that notification has been limited to webmail only access as a last resort action by TalkTalk to stop the use of insecure email.

 

TalkTalk Mail webmail is secure by design using an up to date Internet browser.

 

Select here: Sign in to TalkTalk Mail

 

Enter your full TalkTalk Mail email address and password, select Sign in.

 

You will be able to get email access restored to email apps or software including mail collection services so long as you're ready to use up to date and secure email settings for all the ways you view emails. We can advise on device and software compatibility and provide customer setup guides. Just let us know each mail collection service, each device, its operating system and email software including version that are in current use.

 

For a definitive check of settings take screenshots of the incoming and outgoing server settings, image edit to obscure the first part of the email address and upload here using the Camera icon (desktop browser) or Picture icon (mobile browser) above this reply area.

 

When you confirm the secure settings are ready I can request TalkTalk Support to restore full access. TalkTalk Support will respond here and access will be restored usually within a couple of working days.
