Windows 10: WLM Error Retrieving G-Mail 0x800CCC0F

So before you say anything yes I am using Windows Live Mail but it still works WONDERS! For everything except my Gmail. I clicked add account and logged in successfully with my Gmail account. It started to retrieve them no problem but stopped on 2/2/15 and gave me this error message:

"Unable to send or receive messages for the Gmail (Mail Redacted) account. Header download for the 'Inbox' folder did not complete. Could not download new messages from the IMAP server.Server Response: The server did not respond to this IMAP command before the connection was terminated.Server: 'imap.gmail.com'Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC0FProtocol: IMAPPort: 993Secure(SSL): Yes"

Windows Live Mail 2011

We have Windows 10 and use WLM for emails. We constantly get the error message: 0x800CCC0F and emails are not downloaded. I have been in touch with AVG as that is our anti virus but it does not appear to be a problem with that. Can anyone help or suggest
a solution as it's starting to get very annoying...

 

Problem with the email attachment, getting not responding error on Windows 10

That was good news indeed that your emails have arisen from the dead!

Since you are now looking at WLM in the ...\Users....\WLM, you have probably checked out the Storage Folders there as well. Basically, all your mail from WLM should still be in the WLM Folder (except those you've physically deleted of course) and those
which may have inadvertently been deleted because of a crash/power outage, etc. may be found in your Storage Folder. If you're happy using Outlook then you're correct in not wanting to disrupt the status quo by trying for a fresh WLM/Live Essentials download.

Where are you in Oz - I'm in Perth. All the best with retrieving and deciphering all your old mail!

Hi ReconBunny.

It is my understand that WLM is considered a less secure app. Maybe this article will help.

That's already on so it can't be the problem.

 

Morning.

I searched your error code and it would seem, from this thread that there is a corrupt email in the stream that is causing issue. How you find it is another issue. I cut and pasted this response.





Here is the whole thread.

I guess as a starting point is the date that you noted it stopped on.
