Being the default mail program just means that if another program wants to send an e-mail,
it will use the default mail program. Being the default has nothing to do with
receiving/downloading mail.
Mail gets downloaded into whatever mail program you run. When using a POP3 mail server,
by default all messages are deleted from the server after downloading, leaving nothing for
another mail program to get.

- Stop running Outlook Express
- Run OE in a news-only mode
Command Line Options for Outlook Express

include this account in send and receive)
- Tell OE to leave messages on the server (Tools, Accounts, Mail, Properties, Advanced)
