how do I get my mail to sync every time I hit the sync button the error code comes up.. error 0x80004005

anybody got an answer yet? I have had this problem since upgrading to Windows 10, and cannot find a solution anywhere. I have set up an email address from my internet provider (pop3) and when I try to do the initial sync for the account I get the error 0x80004005.

I have double checked my settings and they are correct. I am unable to figure out how to check the port settings.

I migrated from Windows8 to 10. Mail for Windows has automatically sync'ed the Inbox and a couple of folders, but most folders are still empty. Manually refreshing any folder fails with error code 0x80004005. In particular, the Outbox will not sync, so I can't send any emails.
