Since 9/28/05 when I try to get into Outlook 2003 and it starts to download
emails, there is a little envelope in the system tray that it states that it
is trying to synchronize folders. I get an error message that in essence
states that outlook failed to download emails. the synchronizing of folders
never stops. When I use outlook express, everything is fine. I have tried to
make a new pst, uninstall outlook and reinstall but no joy.

Nothing has changed in my computer prior to this except the automatic
updates. Is there something that has occurred on downloading auto updates
that others have had the same problem as I or am I unique here.

Thanks,

Berto

Do you have an http account configured in Outlook. If you double click on
it, it should open a window there should be an error number. It may be
helpful in determining the situation.

I am not quite sure what you mean when you ask me to double click on an
account and I get an error number. These is the errors that I get:

Task 'pop.central.cox.net - Receiving' reported error (0x8004210A) : 'The
operation timed out waiting for a response from the receiving (POP) server.
If you continue to receive this message, contact your server administrator
or Internet service provider (ISP).'

Task 'MSN - Receiving' reported error (0x8004210A) : 'The operation timed
out waiting for a response from the receiving (POP) server. If you continue
to receive this message, contact your server administrator or Internet
service provider (ISP).'

When I test each email account in tools, i get these messages:

Task 'MSN - Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC15) : 'Unable to connect to
the network. Check your network connection or modem.'

I am connected with Outlook Express. why is this happening in OUtlook. BTW,
I imported the addys to OE and OE works fine.

Thank you,

Berto

Here are some KB articles to help you out.

I would also try setting the timeout setting to longer than the default (Can
be found on the advanced tab for the account settings)
