Lately and i think after installing SP2 one of my two Hotmail accounts keeps
taking over the other one.the solution is to remove the account exit OE and
recreate the deleted account.Since it's a Hotmail account i don't loose mail
but it's a pretty annoying and weird behaviour for OE.

is there anything like that reported from others?

thank you

I get that also but i had it pre-SP2 as well. I find it just a minor
irritation and it usually goes away itself after a minute or two. I think
when it is polling for email on both accounts it sometimes gets crossed
wires. I also sometimes (rarely) end up with 2 sets of the same email,
again it corrects itself in a few seconds.

I'm quite upset that we are going to have to pay for access to hotmail
accounts soon from Outlook Express as i have about 5 different accounts
(since they were free) which I use for differen't groups and newsletters
etc. Getting them on my desktop via OE was hugely convenient but it would
be very expensive to keep access to all of them this way. I'm going to pay
for one which I can't live without and i'm going to have to switch to
another free email service via OE unfortuantely for the rest. I really
loved using hotmail too.
