Same mail client. Have to believe a hiccup. But, I did change that setting
within IE to reflect that live.com, as you suggested.

Could be that I was "compacting" a few times and stopped, in the middle.
That cant be good.

Not pretty, but I went through all my messages and deleted/moved/filed. Also
went and deleted messages sent and deleted - deleted. If that makes sense.

Thank you for asking.

How is what's downloading from from Comcast's mailserver related to the
problems you'd encountered accessing your free Hotmail account via HTTP
(WebDAV) in OE?

OK, Right now Outlook Express is downloading over 8000 messages from my
Comcast account into my "in-box".

Going to the comcast web-mail client, it's really less than 10.

That's never happened before......

Not complaining, just stating.

OK. Done and done.

I made the "cutt-off"date on several accounts, and the multiple
in-boxes
*has* to be what throws off OE.

A1. Nope.

A2. Have you ever been able to access this particular account in OE?

Anyone else having issues getting Outlook Express to retrieve

from
the Hotmail HTTP protocol servers out there on the Internet?

I use a couple of different "hotmail" accounts, but the one that I
use
most
frequently, and the one that I access directly from the MS Hotmail
website,
does not seem to be "pushing" any new emails to my OE client.

Temporary or permanent, I am wondering.
