    I have had a problem since November 2020.  Thought it was just my password but I have had my password reset by the server and I still get the message below:

    Unable to send or receive messages for the Bcn (thatcher) account. An unknown error has occurred.

    Server: 'mail.bcn.net'

    Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800C013E

    Protocol: POP3

    Port: 110

    Secure(SSL): No

    I tried updating Windows Mail live 2011 today but it did not change anything.  I tried the repair  using the window sign + R and type I forgot the letters but it was something like WRWL (I did not write it down I just followed the notes on the replys on the community stream.  Got an error says I had no internet connection and I have a direct line to broadband so I did not lose connection.    

    Not sure if I am comfortable changing registry but if that is the only way I will try it but wanted to make sure the above changes are for this error.

    I have posted a full solution to this type of fault, earlier in this thread.

    If that solution doesn't work for you, your next best choice probably is to reinstall the Windows Live Mail program. Some people have reported success by doing that -- it returns the email program to the state it was in before this fault arose, by putting all the important settings back to their previous (working) state.
