Error code 0x800ccc90 on Outlook Express when accessing email using iPad

Asked By dabneymarston 0 points N/A Posted on - 10/02/2011

I use Outlook Express 6 on a PC (Windows XP SP3) to access the Email (POP3), to work normally.

When I access the Email (POP3) through the iPad the Outlook Express on the PC will pop up warning error code 0x800ccc90.

But if iPad is off Outlook Express to work normally again.

Problems will occur if Outlook Express was working and at the same time accessing email using the iPad

How to solve this conflict problem ?

Different ISP uses different settings on email client, some uses authentication when sending and some not. This ensure that the email sent out is secured while it passes the ISP's server. If you are subscribed to Verizon DSL, they uses authentication for sending. So, the box has to be check. While if you are subscribed to Road Runner, Time Warner Cable then you don't need to authenticate the when sending email. Email is already secured if you are using their Internet Server, that's for sure.
