I have Outlook Exp. set as my default mail server, but everything is going
to
Outlook. When I try to open email in Outlook I get a message saying it
hasn't
been downloaded from the server. Anyone have an idea what's going on? Ever
since the auto update from a couple of weeks ago that caused browser and
email problems for me, I've been having intermittent problems of various
sorts, I don't know if this is related to that update, as it just started
this weekend, but I for one am getting fed up with MS!
