Although POP settings for Gmail are correct, I am unable to receive or send any mails due to the following message:

Socket Error: 10055, Port: 995, Protocol: POP.insufficient space in the buffer or queue full.Impossible to execute operation on the socket.

Windows XP SP3.

I have created several new accounts in Incredimail, no luck.

Enabled POP for all mails in Gmail, no luck.

Thanks for all your help!
