For the past week, when I on my computer and open my Outlook Express, there
would be a small window flashed out and asked me to re-enter my user-id and
password again (under Singnet). I have to go to "Tools" then "Accounts" and
then reconfigure my e-mail setting. It is always the server information
that changes: the incoming mail (pop3) by default should be
pop.singnet.com.sg, but it always appeared as 127.0.0.1. After I changed
it to pop.singnet.com.sg, it works. However, when I on my computer next day
(or few fours later) and open my outlook again, the same problem occurs, the
incoming mail (pop3) in the configuration will again appears as 127.0.0.1.

I called Singnet for technical help but what they told me is to reinstall
outlook express. I am not convinced by their answer.

Can anyone help me to resolve this?

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!

1) Ask in an Outlook Express newsgroup like
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general
2) Disable your antivirus mail scanning option. That's what's causing the
symptoms and it's not needed anyway.
