I use OE6 and until a few days ago everything was fine. Now though when a
member of the household uses his identity in OE, he keeps getting error
message from the hotmail server saying either username or password is
invalid. The entire contents of the hotmail inbox disappear & is replace by
one auto generated e-mail from hotmail staff saying in order to cut down on
spam he needs to verify his username & password. He goes direct to the
hotmail website and logs in from there where he is asked to very the jumbled
characters that appear in order to sign in. This done his inbox appears
intact and eveything looks fine. When switching back to OE, the inbox
refreshes and starts downloading its previously held contents. This happens
everytime he logs in but doesn't happen with my OE identity and has only
recently started happening. Neither of us have changed any settings so why
is this happening?

Thanks
