You may try reading on the following articles and see if
one fits:
OL: Error 0x800ccc0d or 0x800ccc0f When Receiving and Sending E-Mail
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;813514&Product=ol2002
OL: "Server Has Unexpectedly Terminated the Connection"
Error Message If You Start Outlook or Outlook Express:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;318660
OL2002: "Error 0x800ccc0f: Connection to the Server Was
Interrupted" Error Message When You Try to Send or
Receive an E-Mail Message:

Another possible thing to look at is if there is a LinkSys router.
I am quoting from another post regarding the same error message:
"I took your mention of the LinkSys router and
checked mine -I enabled MTU at 1492 and disabled "Block
WAN request" and my problem has vanished."
Yet another possible:
You may need to use the ISP's SMTP server to
send messages.
Example: I use COX to connect to the internet
but I use EARTHLINK for my email.
My settings for Earthlink mail server are:
INCOMING POP: mail.earthlink.net
OUTGOING SMTP: smtp.cox.net
Notice how I use earthlink to get my email in
but I use cox to send my email out.
