Hello,

Here is the error message I get: "Unable to poll for new messages on your
HTTP server. Account: 'Hotmail', server:
http//services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp, Protocol HTTPMail, Port:
0,. Secure(SSL); No. Socket Error: 12019(not sure of this #), Error Number
0x80004005."

I have been to micorsoft help. I have checked for the error message and
verified the settings are correct, which they are. I continue to get the
error.
