Thunderbird useing charter.net

I am trying to get mail from my work computer using my charter.net account and get a message that could not connect to server pop.charter.net; the connection was refused. I am using the same setting from my home computer. Any one have help on this issue.

Thank You
Chopper

I can't be sure, but when I was first playing with Portable Apps (2002) I had trouble downloading my mail from Comcast. (Might have been attbroadband, I'm don't recall) It turns out that they blocked access to the e-mail servers to users who were connecting from outside of their network.

This article appears to cover your problem:

Doesn't look good. But maybe you can talk to someone at Charter's tech support desk who can offer an alternate pop server.
