Outlook Express 6 and MSN mail

N

Nina

I used to use Outlook Express with another POP3 mail server
and it worked. Now I am loosing the ability of using that
mail server and need to set up Outlook to work with my MSN
account. I followed the instructions on adding a new mail
for HOtmail & MSN mail and I still can't get it to work...I
get the following message.

Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server.
Account: 'Hotmail', Server:
'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp',
Protocol: HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Service Unavailable',
Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x800CCCF0

What can I do to get this working..thanks

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook

97/98/2000/2002/2003 from the Office suite of products. Outlook

Express is actually a separate program despite the similar name.



For help with your OE questions, try an OE newsgroup such as

microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress (for OE 6), or

an OE help website such as http://insideOE.tomsterdam.com. If you're

accessing the Microsoft newsgroups through the MS Product Support

Services "Community Newsgroups" web interface, click

http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp?icp=InternetExplorer

to get to the Internet Explorer groups, then click the plus sign next to

your version of IE to see the link to the Outlook Express group for that

version number. Good luck!

I only have one hotmail account...I don't have any
firewalls..I have nothing by the clock...what do you mean
by proxy??

-----Original Message-----
Do you have more than one hotmail account in the profile? Only one is
supported...

Are you using a proxy or firewall? If so does it support webdav?
