Not sure what happened...
I used McAfee removal tool, uninstalled AVAST, then reinstalled it using the
custom settings...still nothing. So I tried removing my email account
altogether ( which I have done in the past) and still nothing.
However, I accessed my email account online at the same time my windows
mail was trying to log in. I have no idea what happened but as I typed in my
username and password (for the millionth time) for windows mail, all the
emails on my internet account dissapeared and they showed up in my windows
mail account. I'm not sure what happened or how it happened but my email is
working again.
Thank you for your help, I really appreciate it.
