My Windows Live Mail acts "frozen". It will not allow me to send or receive messages. I've restarted the computer and that didn't help. I get the error message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Centurytel account. Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection.

Possible causes include server problems, network problems, or a long period of inactivity.

Server: POP.CenturyTel.net

Windows Live Mail error ID: 0x800ccc0f

Protocol: POP3

Port 995

Secure (SSL): Yes

I don't know what any of the above means as I am not a computer whiz. If there is a way

to fix this problem I will need step-by-step instructions. Thanks in advance.
