For the past few days I have been having intermittent problems with email in Outlook getting the message "socket error 10060, error reference 0x800CCC0E" so I am unable to connect. Usually this is resolved after a few times of trying. I haven't changed any settings and as this is intermittent I guess this is a problem with Orange and not my settings. Anyone else had this problem or got any ideas as to how to solve it?
yes i have had similar problems with followinf error messages

As you can see from my post I too have been having the same problems.
After contacting Orange, they could only reply with suggestions from their "help" pages which I told them did not work.
After pestering them everyday and threatening to report them to OFCOM, they HAVE admitted that there IS a problem with their server which has been going on for a few weeks and they are doing tests to try to resolve the issue.
