I'll try to explain this as best as I can. I never save passwords on my
computer and just log in manually. In outlook 2002 with pop3 and
hotmail account, when signing in, the box for my pop3 account would pop
up then immediately the sign in box for hotmail would pop up perfectly.
So in effect, I'd only have to click send/recieve once to log in for
both accounts. Get it? Now. In outlook 2003 with pop3 and hotmail
account, clicking send and recieve pops up my pop3 sign in, but the
task box never finishes its tasks and stays open because the last task
is hotmail, so i have to close the box. I never even see the hotmail
sign in until closing the box then clicking on hotmail. Is there a way
to make the sign in boxes pop up one after the other like 2002 so i can
do less clicking?
 
My question may have something to do with this. I have 6 email accounts set
up in Outlook 2003 (as I did in Outlook 2002). Only one (pop) is set to
automatically send and receive, but Hotmail (only one http) sends and
receives ANYWAY, even though in mail settings, there is a clear "red X" on
Hotmail.

I guess the beauty of 2003 is that the ongoing problem I had with 2003 on
two computers with mulitple Outlooks running seems to be gone.
