Microsoft never has liked having to following standards that they
don't define, so they want to supplant POP3 and IMAP4 with their own
protocol but which only their email clients can understand (and also
why I don't bother with Hotmail accounts since that locks me into
using Microsoft-only e-mail clients).

Take a look at the HTTP server specified in the e-mail account that
you defined in WLM. I'm assuming Microsoft will still show it to you
as they did in OE when you created an HTTP account (for Hotmail).

After a week of emails from microsoft and attempts at everything that was
sent,i have finally fixed the problem.All I had to do was restart wlm,on
tools menu click accounts,from mail section select your wlm account and hit
remove and ok.then close your wlm.
then restart wlm go back to tools then accounts,click add,select email
account,click next,enter your original email address and password as well as
your display name,click next.click finish then close.when you reopen wlm it
downloads your messages.hopefully there will be no more problems.
thanks guys
