I'm asking this question on behalf of a relative
they have recently started with madasafish and everything is going fine except for an email problem
when they try to send/receive they get the following error message
The server responded with an error. Account: 'Madasafish', Server: 'mail.madasafish.com', Protocol: POP3, Server Response: '-ERR AVG POP3 Proxy Server: Cannot connect to the mail server!', Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC90

if they disable their AVG email protection then they receive emails with no problems

they use outlook express

    It's almost certainly a firewall issue. The firewall is not giving permission for the AVG EMail scanner to access the Internet.

    What Firewall do they use?
