Account Type grayed out

[Dale]

Since msn.com changed from http to pop3 for email to my inbox I am unable to
change the Account Type from Http to POP3 because it is grayed out. Is there
a way to change the account type without recreating a new profile

You don't need to make a new profile but you do need to delete that account
and make a new one using either POP3 or the outlook connector.

You can't change the account type in ANY email client AFAIK - you have to
create a new account and then delete the old.
