My Outlook Express keeps changing to work off line. I recently added an
imap gmail connection and installed Windows SP3. I don't know if these
recent changes have anything to do with this.


I haven't noticed this kind of behavior before. I usually use the Sand/Recv
button at the top of the screen and the option setting for checking and
receiving new messages is set for every 30 min.

Is it normal for OE to keep showing working off line every now and then?
