getting disconnected

I think it all started when i tried to send an e-mail without putting in a subject. Then I would keep getting a pop up message saying that Outlook could not post your message Subject [no subject] and this was long after I didn't even care about the message any more.So one time I tried clicking a little box on the pop- message that said something like "hang up after something or other" and now I get disconnected very frequently. I"ve gone into settings and set it at 59 minutes but that is not happening. thank you in advance. john

 

Go to OE\Tools\Options\Connection\and be sure "Hang up after sending and receiving" is unchecked.

 

I took a look and it was unchecked. john
