I don't know how installing IE7 would have changed settings in OE, but I can
imagine that changes to authentication in IE7 might make "always connect using
LAN" behave differently. I don't really follow IE development so I can't say
for sure.

Hi, Tom.

No, I don't particularly need it to be set up like that.
It _was_ and has changed after the arrival of IE7, which was why I asked.

One thing that's changed since I installed the new IE7, is that when I press
Send/Receive in Outlook Express, sending messages with the connection Local
Area Network (as used for my normal email accounts) is not acceptable.

I have to set it to my mail account connection, Any Available _or_ remove
the tick from Always connect to (etc) (under Tools Acounts Internet
Accounts Connection).

Can this be altered so that I use Local Area Network (connection) for all?

Is there some particular reason you need to do that? For most users OE works
best if the "always connect using" option is cleared on all accounts so that
OE
uses whatever open connection it finds.
