Is this Hotmail account one of the free ones? If so, Hotmail no longer
allows access via Outlook to free accounts.

Thanks for the help, I did try one at a time, and finally deleted my old
profile and started over completely....works fine now. I should note that my
Hotmail is one of the old free ones, and I believe taht they have
"grandfathered them"
Thanks again.

I just reinstalled Outlook 2003 and am getting the same type of error
message, "object not found" when trying to send. My account is not with
hotmail and I have confirmed the outging mail smtp server name.

I also get the message whenever I try and try and forward more than 1 e-mail
at a time.

I used to be able to select multiple e-mails and click forward and they
would all come up in a new e-mail.

Any help much appreciated

I am having this problem with setting up my Outlook 2007 on Vista. Getting
same message. Tried deleting profile and creating new one, but still same
problem..."Operation Failed. Object not found....message." I have checked
the settings and they are fine and are the same as my XP desktop. When I run
the test settings on the Vista, it says it works fine, but it is not letting
me send/receive messages...I just get the same old message "Operation
Failed....Object not found." Please help. I am getting frustrated.
