Post the complete error message.

General OE Caveats:

- Don't use Inbox or Sent Items to archive messages. Move them to local
folders created for this purpose.

- Empty Deleted Items folder daily.

- Disable Background Compacting [not available in SP2] and frequently
perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at
http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm

- WinXP SP2 only: Do not shut down your machine while Windows is
automatically compacting your message store.

- Your anti-virus application's email scanning feature can also cause such
corruption. Disable it. It provides no additional protection.

I have been retrieving webmail from comcast.net for about a year. Now when
I
try to retrieve it I get the error message can't find mail.comcast.net
server. I called comcast and they said everything was alright at their
end.
Does anyone know what might be wrong and what I can do to correct it? I am
using XP sp2 and IE 7, and OE 6.
