When trying to access my email with outlook, I recently (since I got back from my holidays) got the followong message:
Task 'NobiX.net - bert - Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC0F) : 'The connection to the srever was interrupted. If the problem continues, contact your server administrator or Internet Service Provider (ISP).'
Based on this message, I checked my mail logs on the server:

I already checked the permissions on the /inbox and /control folders, and they are both set to 777 (as mentionned in a forum item on this subject).
Didn't find anything else on this problem!
Please advise me on this subject!
Thanks!
