MS Office Forum / Outlook / Installation and Configuration / February 2006Outlook Express is being a pain :o{
I have been using Outlook Express for nearly 5 years and have never had this problem come up before, I have done dozens of formats and reconfigured many systems with no problem but this one has me stumped, I have sought help through Microsoft but the first level technicians have only referred me to a pay service that I cannot afford; anyone willing to help me tackle it? here goes... After doing a format on my computer and reinstalling XP I cannot access my hotmail account from Outlook Express 6 any longer. (I knew that new accounts could not do this but had been told that existing accounts could still download their hotmail.) Despite the fact that my Hotmail account is 5 years old now, I get an error whenever I try to access it, the error number is 0x800CCC32. Hotmail support has told me that I should be able to access it just fine. I have configured Norton to allow it, and also IE, I have added the hotmail account and deleted it in order to re-enter the information, I have also entered that error into the KB and checked to see if I had missed anything - no go...any advice?!? One thing that might be wrong could be the server information OE uses when setting up the HTTP mail; as soon as you enter the hotmail address when setting the account up it automatically selects HTTP and then enters the following server information... http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp...could it be that this information has maybe changed and what I have is wrong now? It has always worked in the past but I know that things DO change, I'm just grasping at this point! > I have been using Outlook Express for nearly 5 years and have never had this > problem come up before, I have done dozens of formats and reconfigured many [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > information, I have also entered that error into the KB and checked to see if > I had missed anything - no go...any advice?!? If a new response is added to this mail does it get bumped up to the top of the board? I sure hope this doesn't fall off onto other pages before I can get some help....please! > I have been using Outlook Express for nearly 5 years and have never had this > problem come up before, I have done dozens of formats and reconfigured many [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > information, I have also entered that error into the KB and checked to see if > I had missed anything - no go...any advice?!? > I have been using Outlook Express for nearly 5 years and have never > had this problem come up before, Wrong newsgroup. As in an Outlook Express newsgroup.  SignatureBrian Tillman Gee, thanks for the er....help?!?! I see this is the grouping for Outlook, I didn't see one for Outlook express, this is a place to go for help though...couldn't you have offered help instead of being critical? Thanks for trying though :) > > I have been using Outlook Express for nearly 5 years and have never > > had this problem come up before, > > Wrong newsgroup. As in an Outlook Express newsgroup. Thank you, in a round about way I have learned that there is an OE newsgroup. The person who sent me searching was no help in finding it, but hey, it takes all kinds right?!? Thanks to those who looked in and tried to help...off to the OE group! > I have been using Outlook Express for nearly 5 years and have never had this > problem come up before, I have done dozens of formats and reconfigured many [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > information, I have also entered that error into the KB and checked to see if > I had missed anything - no go...any advice?!? |
