No, I have only one hotmail account. The multiple requests for username and
password came back as well. I'd guess it is still having a problem
authenicating. I still can get into hotmail by going directly to hotmail,
just not thru OE.

That looks like an error you would get if you were using multiple Hotmail
addresses or if the server has a problem identifying you. Are you
attempting to download for more than one Hotmail account?

This should help fix it:

When I try and use OE to access hotmail it repeatedly (4 or 5 times)
asks
for
username and password. Then I recieve the following error msg:

Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account:
'Hotmail',
Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol:

OE worked fine until I down loaded IE 7.0 and added an HP PhotoSmart
printer. I do not know if either caused the problem, but they both
occured
at the same time OE quit working.

I tried Knowledge Base, but could not fine the identical error number.
Did
try a fix wher the error text was the same......but it had no effrect.
