Hi Yokel1970

I have just done a bit of research on this and found that this is more than likely a firewall issue
Source 1

Source 2

Your settings are correct so I would suggest turning off your firewall / realtime protection then closing and opening Livemail and attempting to receive - if this works then you will need to have port 995 unblocked on your firewall

Be sure to turn your firewall back on after this and run a full virus scan.  Let me know how that works out for you Yokel1970

Thanks
