Mine too. MicroCrap must have busted the process again. Hope someone can
offer a solution soon. These accounts do not use a 'server' but that is the
error I get. There is no way to change the server time out option for a
passport or live account that I know of. Are you using Outlook Connector to
access your MSN account?

I have had the same problem, here is what i got back from MSN

{Krishna}are you using Outlook connector?
{Krishna}if yes , and if you are facing any problem with mails.....
{Krishna}as there is some problem on MSN server side and they are trying to
rectify that , its going to take some time.

I'm posting this same message in a few threads so the word gets out...read

I just got off the phone with Outlook Tech Support. Apparently the MSN
servers have been having some issues for the past couple of days. It only
affects certain accounts (but I did not understand why). Anyways, the long
and short of it is...You may be able to fix it right now or it may take an
additional 24 hours to resolve, she said it's hit and miss. In either case,
here is what Tech support said you need to do:
1. Remove your msn connector under add & remove programs in the control panel.
2. Staying in add or remove programs click on MSN and change/remove and
re-download the Microsoft Office Outlook Connector.
3. In outlook, remove your e-mail account and then re-add it.

On mine it did sink all my e-mails into outlook initially but still won't
receive any new e-mails. If it does not work we are supposed to try again in
24 hours. The upside (if there is one) is that they are aware of the issue!

Good luck to all.
