Problem setting up POP for fetching incoming emails

manpreetsinghchadha

I'm not sure what the problem is, I have entered all the right information needed to setup the email fetching for my support email account.

Username: support@mywebsite.com

Password: mypassword

Mail Account (Optional)

Status: Enabled

Host: mail.mywebsite.com

Port: 26

Protocol: POP

Encryption: None

When I click submit, I get this error:

Can't connect to owa.***.de,995: Connection timed out

What can I do to make this work?..

Thank you in advance.

Are you sure about that port number? Traditionally POP is 110.

Yes, it port 995 and SSL required.

hi,

Now I am trying configure gmail email-id but it gives Error.

Can't connect to gmail-pop.l.google.com,995: Connection timed out

Can you help ..?

Wow it is solved ...

it was blocked by my hosting space.

That would do it! I'm glad that you figured it out. If you don't mind sharing who your host is that would be great. That way if someone else has this problem and has the same host there would be a record of it.
