- what is your account status via membercenter.msn.com ? Signon work ?
What does it say under Welcome..(it should say something
like your MSn9 etc membership information)

- did you follow the steps to change your password again ?

- tried a new account on XP ? Which email client(OE, Outlook, WLM) ?

- using full email address in incoming, outgoing and

Thanks for chiming in here, winston.

@map: Do this, too:

IE (yes, IE) Tools | Internet Options | Privacy | Sites| type in

live.com
msn.com
hotmail.com

and Allow cookies for each domain, in turn (i.e., do it 3 times, once
for
each domain).

For [map]:
a: If you successfully used pop3.live.com in the past you have an
msn.com
legacy account or a Windows Live Hotmail Plus account. (See section
V: (a)
and (b) b. Your error message(authorization) indicates a few
possible
items
- corrupt account in OE (to fix, remove and create new, do not
import
using an iaf file) - not using the full in the
incoming
mail server
username field and the outgoing mail server field. Separately ensure
the
correct password is entered and the check box to
remember enabled. Explicit instructions for pop3 account setup
can be
found here.

c. Fyi...there are no legacy pop3 accounts from 1995 that are
name.live.com accounts, they are all accounts.
