An unknown error has occurred. ... Error Number: 0x80090024

Posted: 08-31-2006, 02:40 AM
What I have
1. I'm using DSL to sbcglobal.net
2. The July build of Vista Ultimate on a home brew box (that had been
fine as an SBS 2003 server until I shut that down. The only change I
had to make was to get a much more expensive video card. The previous
card couldn't show the icons in the upper left corner and looked like
the screen was broken out in measles - little red dots all over the
place. $120 cured the disease:-)
3. A 3 rating on the Vista Scale. (1GB memory)

What works.
1. I communicate with the 'net just great.
2. Agent Forte 4.0 communicates with mail.microsoft.com just great so
far. (Haven't posted a message yet.)
3.Webmail downloads headers OK from mail.microsoft.com - at least for
this forum. That's all Ive tried.

What fails
1.If I try to fetch the bodies of posings Webmail gets the shakes and
never finishes. By shakes I mean that "Rate this post" flickers
rapidly and the status bar flickers.

2. Here's the real problem. When I try to download from either a
Powweb.com hosted pop3 server (great folk incidentally tremendous
value for the money) or gmail via a pop3, i get the following error:

An unknown error has occurred. Account: 'pop3.xxxx.com', Server:
'pop3.xxxxx.com', Protocol: POP3, Port: 110, Secure(SSL): No, Error
Number: 0x80090024

What Microsoft says:

1. When I kill the newsgroup reading, it goes through the error
processing and gives me

Error fixed in Windows Vista Release Candidate 1 (RC1)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Thank you for participating in the Windows Vista beta program and
sending an error report.

Problem description

Microsoft has reviewed this error report and determined that this
problem will be fixed in Windows Vista Release Candidate 1 (RC1).

Solution

Install Windows VistaRelease Candidate 1 (RC1) when it is available
later this year.

For more information about how to obtain updated versions of Windows
Vista, refer to the documentation included with your Beta kit or go to
the following website:


3. When I attempt to send I get an message that is useless when I hit
the send button. It offers to take me to forums, and nothing there.

Ditto when I attempt to save the message that I tried to send.

Suggests please.

Or is Webmail out to lunch until RC1

I sure hope not. Webmail is the basis of what I plan to do for
development.

Since I posted I've done some additional sanity checks.

I configured Fort Agent to act as an email program. It worked great on
the reading side.

Ergo, I conclude
1. I know how to configure an email program correctly.
2. The stack from my mail provider through my ISP and right up to the
email program is working.
3. Webmail is a suck puppy.

Any one care to make any suggestions.

Regards,
Al

What is WebMail you keep referring to? Are you talking about Hotmail?

Any webmail programs normally use IE, so you need to discuss that in an IE
forum. This is for Vista Windows Mail.

Good question. That's what I get for posting late at night. I meant to
say WindowsMail.
Please accept my apologiies.

I've also figured out that I'm on the July Beta 2 bits 5384

And unless some suggests otherwise I'm about to upgrade to the August
CPT.

Regards,
Al

You may be better off waiting for the release of RC1 rather than using the
August CTP. It should be available very soon.
