Dear Anna,
I found this site with special (security) settings for "sympatico" e-mail
accounst.
Please check your settings with this site:
"Configuring your incoming email client for Sympatico/Hotmail: fetchmail"
http://download.gna.org/hpr/fetchmai...pop-howto.html
Maybe you can try another free e-mail provider, to see that the reason for
your problem is not a problem of Outlook or Outlook Express.
Did you check your settings with this website:
How to configure Outlook?
http://upgradecentre.sympatico.ca/FA....aspx?p=FAQ_GO
"How to configure Outlook Express 6 for use with a Sympatico e-mail account"
http://technology.sympatico.msn.ca/H...etect=&abc=abc
As special the different ports (995 for POP3) and that the server needs a
secure (SSL) connection?
Maybe it helps.
