server timeout

in outlook express tools   properties   advanced....there is a tweek for server timeout. 
is it the time you get to wait or is it the time it takes until the server takes a timeout??
 
should it be set at short?

    It's the time Outlook Express will wait for a response from the email server before it will report that that the server is not available.  Setting it too short may cause you to not get email.  Setting it too long, will mean you will just have to wait longer to find out that there is a problem with the server.
