Re: Access to MSN mail via OE6

Are you using different identities for the HTTP accounts? You really should since many other users report problems trying to have two or more HTTP (web mail) accounts in one identity.

I have been using Outlook Express to access my MSN mail for many years with
no problem (current version is OE6). I also have a Hotmail account that I
access in the same way. Both are of course on HTTP servers. Since last week I
have a problem with MSN mail access that it asks for my user name and
password in a box for every message, and even then does not always download
on the first attempt. Meanwhile the Hotmail works perfectly. The password is
correctly entered in the account information.

help would be appreciated.
