After reveive my emails via POP3, the apache server had an error ,caused the site can not work . Why?
 
Server OS: Win 2003
Firewall: Windows Firewall

I can reveive partial POP3 mails, about 3 mails, and then the server stop work.
 
POP your mail. Then ping the server to see if you get a response. If you don't then likely the firewall is blocking you. I had this issue with the Firebox firewall/router.

You are great!

1.I reveived my mail, then the mail server and the web server(Apache) both stops, and the server give a response by ping it: Ping request could not find host...

2.But on another computer, i can ping my server, you are right, but how to resolve the problem?

 
Just to clarify. When you do the action above, your router will not temporarily block your IP when you pop your mail.
I assume this has to do with the way the firewall interprets the POP3 connection.
