Error send/receive Hotmail in Outlook 2003

Guest

Hi there,
I get the following error when trying send/receive my hotmail into outlook
2003.
It was working fine before and suddenly from one day to the next it doesn't
work at all !! I tried to delete the hotmail account and reconfigure it but
it doesn't help either. Getting desperate.
OH yeah would like to add that I have a hotmail premium account and am not
free hotmail user, so this should not be the issue either ! Funny thing is
that I use outlook at work and there accessing my hotmail account still works
fine !


Task 'Hotmail: Folder:Inbox Synchronizing headers.' reported error
(0x80004005) : 'Outlook's request to the server failed.
The server responded ''. '

ANYBODY >>>!!!! Help please !!!

Are you behind a firewall at home? Does it work in OE?

No I'm not behind a firewall but am accessing internet through 3com 11G
Wireless Router. I am not using encryption on my wireless setup.
I tried setting up hotmail access using Outlook Express and this also
doesn't work get the same error code.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks,
Mark

Hi Diane,
Sorry, I forgot to mention that I am in fact behind a firewall, two actually !
I am running XP SP2 and I have Norton Internet Security Running on my system.
Still all that didn't matter for some time, as it was working fine one day
and just quit on me the next.
Additional help is veeerrrryyy welcome !
CHeers,
M

the fact that it fails in OE too tells me something is wrong between you
and hotmail... it could be NIS, especially if it installed any updates.
Disable NIS (you probably shouldn't use two anyway) - the router should have
a firewall enabled and that is actually better than a software firewall.
