Hi Sandra
firstly, I agree with "guestuser", any company with a reputation to maintain
that tells you to do what they did deserves all the bad press they get.
To take the advice a little further, can you access your mail via a browser
as well as Outlook Express? If so I would first install Firefox Browser and
then access to set up all necessary protocols for filtering/blocking etc.
Firefox will not throw up the interface access problems that IE does!!
After you have rid yourself of this latest problem, seriously consider
moving your account elsewhere. I have Yahoo mail and Googlemail (GMail)
accounts and these don't have the problems and/or the irresponsible advice
you were given. POP3 is always going to give you more control and Googlemail
lets you configure OE to send and receive as do a number of others.

help me....please. This happened to me last month and lasted for 7 days and
is now happening again. On my home page in ie6, the yellow triangle in the
task bar is again appearing (error on page). My junkmail box is stuck - I
cannot delete any mail from this inbox. If I move it though to another area
(drafts, inbox, etc.), from there I am then able to delete it. It appears to
be giving me the option to delete with the window opening asking me if I want
future email from these addresses to go into my junk mail box in the future
BUT
it's not deleting anything. Exactly the same problem I'm having now, I had
last month and when I was on the phone with msn tech. support, they had me
reinstalling outlook xprs, reconfiguring my options in ie tools, resetting
everything but nothing helped then and nothing is helping now. I've run
every single viral, adware, spyware detector, did system restore, check
disks, deleted temp files (and offline), cookies, and nothing is helping.
msn told me I'd have to reinstall my operating system???? A very costly
decision when all of a sudden, the problem then went away. As well, I've been
noticing again that o.e. will show "unable to connect to server, cannot
download messages"....words like this, when I open the program but my
messages are getting downloaded in oe. The biggest problem is my inability to
delete junk mail normally. I don't know if this is significant but in ie,
the error code reads "problems with web page might prevent it from being
displayed or functioning properly." Line: 172, Char: 1, Error: 'tagname' is
null or not an object, code: 0, url:
http://by107fd.bay107.hotmail.msn.com/cgi-bin/hotmail? ;
I'm using both IE6 (msn account) and OE6 (HTTP) for mail.
The error message in oe (which doesn't always appear and doesn't prevent the
messages from being download), reads
"Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account:
'http://oe.msn.msnmail.hotmail.com/cgi-bin/hmdata', Server:
'http://oe.msn.msnmail.hotmail.com/cgi-bin/hmdata', Protocol: HTTPMail,
Server Response: 'Service Unavailable', Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Socket
Error: 122, Error Number: 0x800CCCF0
IF YOU HAVEN'T FALLEN ASLEEP FROM THIS POST, CAN YOU HELP ME??????
