Frank:
After fairly extensive research I can come back with these results:
1. Disabling e-mail scanning didn't solve the problem in my
case.
2. My ISP was not at fault either.
3. The Microsoft fix for this particular error# was also
ineffective.
4. Risking being mistaken, this seems to be the solution:
MSN Messenger always wanted to be in the
picture, but I wouldn't let it.
Now that I activated it, my problem seems to
have disappeared. Hope it dtays that way.
5. What can I say?
Harry.
