Well George it looks like we're in this together.  Your previous post
indicated that you recently got a live update from Norton that prompted a
reboot.  Most live updates don't but every once in a while they do.  Now I
see that the error message you received is the same as mine except for us
having different ISP's.  You also stated that you only have this issue with
your MAIN Identity in OE.  I believe that you also stated that you can send
mail but not receive...same here.  Obviously we are both able to access and
use newsgroups.  My guess is that you are going to try disabling Norton
security and anti virus but will have no luck with that either.  It's
starting to look as though something in the update may be the cause of both
of our problems.
I sent off an online help request from the norton web site...you might want
to go to their site via your help button on Norton and put in a similar
request.  I was e-mailed back a case number but it says they will send an
e-mail reply from a tech support person within 4-5 business days meaning I
could be waiting till Tuesday.....oh yeah unless your ISP has web based
e-mail access as mine does you probably should put in the address of your
other e-mail account.
I will keep checking this thread and reply if I hear anything or find a
resolution some other way.
