Thanks Bruce,
Yes, Broadband, OE loads Immediately, server takes for ever. ISP 'help desk'
has asked for the modem ID a couple of times, I assume they are X-referencing
to their documentation.
SPA and Authotization are NOT checked
ISP 'Tech' set up the site manually. ie IP Address; Subnet Mask; Default
Gate; DNS Server and Alternate DNS Server: Proxy Server address and Port
Number;
I have recorded these addresses and now, in TCP/IP properties I have set:
"Obtain an IP address automatically " and
"Obtain a DNS Server address automatically"
Plus in LAN settings I have set:
"Automatically detect settings" while leaving the manually set Proxy server
address and port number as was.
This appears to have cleared the problem !
But why go through all the manual addresses if "auto" is available ?
Perhaps that is a question for their support people.
Is it possible that the ISP may be using specific addressing as part of a
priority structure ? I am certainly not on their most expensive plan !

slow? Did the ISP get the correct numbers off your modem? The possibilities
are almost endless and the link Gerry sent does apply to Outlook Express.
In Tools | Accounts | Mail | Properties | Servers, if the bottom two boxes
are checked, (Logon using SPA & Authorization), try unchecking them.
How to troubleshoot error messages that you receive when try to send and
receive e-mail in Outlook and in Outlook Express:

I would hammer your ISP's tech support. Ask for a level 2 tech. After all,
you are paying them for service.
