Thank you Mike, I am now seeing the 'scanning for inward' coming up, but
that has resulted in the dialogue box requesting that I insert user name
and password (repeatedly). I have tried re-inserting this
information, to no avail.
Just below your post in this group I see a thread from Steve T titled
"Keeps asking for password" in which the solution requires entering the
registry (ominous) Steve did it but he may be more knowledgeable than
I.

Outlook Express
When I click on send/receive nothing happens unless I have something
in my Outbox. It sends that item OK but does not 'look for'
incoming items.
Help please!
