POP3 server not working right

Forgive me if I grabbed the wrong group. There's no list for the POP3
server, so I thought this may be where to look.

Windows Server 2003.

I have a small POP3 server running there for a single email address, for
testing purposes and other minor uses. It has been working fine until the
last day or so, and now I can't get any email from it. My email from a
different machine hits the server, but it doesn't get anywhere:

Your server has unexpectedly terminated the connection. Possible causes for
this include server problems, network problems, or a long period of
inactivity. Account: 'xxxx.xxxxxxxxx.net', Server: 'xxxx.xxxxxxxxx.net',
Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCC0F

Anyone have a suggestion? I've restarted the service, rebooted the server,
and checked the addressing, and all is normal. Nothing shows up in the Event
Log, either.

I'm open to ideas.

David

You can try .windows group
0x800CCC0F CONNECTION_DROPPED Connection closed.

can you ping the server ? pop3 log file ?
