Mail server error
« on: October 07, 2007, 07:38:04 AM »
For about the last week my wifes PC (windows xp & Thunderbird e-mail) has been reporting an error when connecting to our SME server (7.13 updated to 7.2, with all current updates).

"Server.name"has sent an incorrect or unexpected message.  Error Code: -12263

This error can occur almost anytime you start the e-mail client or click on a e-mail folder.  At first I thought it was specific to her e-mail client and that it was glitched.  Now I'm getting it on a fresh install of OpenSuse 10.3 and Thunderbird. 

To me it now looks like a server error.  Two different machines, two different OS's.  Same E-mail client.  Same error.

Any thoughts on what is happing?

Thanks

Ted

Hi Ted,

this is a known issue (since the last updates) and has been reported: http://bugs.contribs.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3438
Have a look, there is a workaround explained.
