Hi Sheila. From the sounds of it you have an email in your inbox that is too large to download using POP3. You can try to see if there is a setting in your email program to increase the amount of time the mail program will wait before timing out. This would likely be found under an Options or Preferences menu item in the program. Failing that, use your web browser to go to http://chebucto.ca and log in to Webmail. You can try downloading the large attachment using Webmail or at the very least you'd be able to move the file to another email folder and/or delete the message with the large attachment from your inbox. Once this message is no longer in your inbox you'll be able to download your mail with POP3 without trouble again.
