Often can't log on to my IMAP email account at mail.optonline.net. "Login to mailserver xxxx.xxxxxx.xxx with username yyy failed." Sometimes it does work, but only after a long time and very laggy. Username and password and other settings are correct - checked and double checked. How do I fix it? This is a recent issue. Thanks!

do you have an anti virus that might be scanning mail or internet connections?

Yes, I use Avast Premium security. My T-bird program also auto-updated to 91.1.1 and has not been able to regularly login to the IMAP server, I believe, ever since. The program worked flawlessly before. Not being a tech wiz, and at age 82, I lack the background to solve this issue. Any help appreciated!

BTW, I tried turning off Avast temporarily, and still can't log in to the IMAP server.
