Does it give this on both the SMTP and the POP3 part or only on one of them? Does it do the same when using an external SMTP server? could it be that you have an intermediate firewall (could be the Windows firewall) that is somehow putting locks on the SMTP and/or POP3 traffic?

I increased it to 20, then 30, and it still fails. If I make a slight change, say, unchecking the Only delete smtp2pop3 messages box, the check completes properly in less than 200 ms. Then the next check goes back to failing because of timeout. -----Original Message----- From: Servers Alive Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Dirk Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2008 9:20 AM To: Servers Alive Discussion List Subject: RE: [SA-list] Smtp2pop3 errors not sure how we can make this error more clear...anyway I'll try.... The check was given a max timeout (timeout field on the check tab), and the check didn't complete within that given timeout. What ca be done about it? Increase the timeout....
