Meant to Post in this thread--

Another MSN POP3 user did not get email on 1/23 alerting him to make changes
to pop settings (i.e. from pop3.email.msn.com to pop3.live.com ). When he
called MSN today to inquire if he should make changes from email.msn.com to
live.com he was told not to!

Why are some POP3 MSN accounts required to make these changes (by 2/1) while
others can be left alone with present MSN POP3/SMTP settings?

As those who have kindly helped me this week, I was told to change settings
by MSN email on 2/23/06. Another curious thing is that my friend signed up
for MSN around late '98 or early '99, while I signed up for MSN in late '99.

Thanks in advice!

I meant the bit about the equality of the Email Address field and the Account
Name field.

However I specifically was talking about POP3 mail servers in general, as
that is the subject of this thread.

That's relatively obvious since all other mail is http not pop3. Http didn't use SPA, only one server and because of that no authentication option.
