Thanks for the reply. I like having multiple accounts in OE, including
newgroups. That's the major attraction. I use the Web version at work. Ah
well, that's how it goes. If it's a server problem, nothing I can do about
that. Appreciate it.

That usually indicates a server error. Either the HTTP server was busy
when you attempted it and you should try again later. Or use the
webinterface at www.hotmail.com to do it.

Getting errors when trying to delete mail, either individually or several
at a time and after looking at the hourglass for some seconds. Specific
error reads: "an unknown error has occurred". When I click the details
button i get
"Configuration:
Account: Hotmail
Server: http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
User name: me @hotmail.com
Protocol: HTTPMail
Port: 0
Secure(SSL): 0
Code: 80004005

Can anyone interpret and is there a way to fix this? Thanks.
