In my experience, this happens often when using POP3 access, and the account is locked due to another client accessing it. Either that, or the server has become twitchy. Either way, you could just wait it out (the problem will more than likely just go away), or switch to using IMAP(S) access on all clients.

Of course, I may be wrong, but now I use IMAPS on all clients and never have a problem like this any more.
