Default No longer getting new e-mail after hard drive upgrade

This is an old post but I'm having this problem as well and can't seem to fix
it. I tried Detect and Repair, and also a full reinstall but nothing worked.
Can anyone help?

Also, some of my icons for other programs are missing. What is that about?

Hi Allen:

I'm afraid not. Since the e-mail was piling up, and I'm pretty dependent on
it, I just put the original hard drive back in. So now e-mail's back, but
I'm back on the lower capacity drive so I'll need to try again at some point.
Glad to know it's not just me, though.

Did you fix this? I have the same problem since I installed Outlook 2000 Pro
on a new Win2000 partition. I can send messages OK, and when I launch Outlook
the status window shows my mail accounts connecting to the server (with no
error messages), but no mail goes into my InBox.

OK, I know this has to be a setting somewhere...

After installing a larger drive and using Western Digital's "Data Lifeguard"
migration tool to make the new drive my boot drive, I am no longer getting
new e-mail (although I can still see everything I had prior to the upgrade).
My guess is that the new mail is being delivered to a different directory
somehow, but after digging through the program I can't find how to correct
this situation. Outgoing e-mail works fine.

Any ideas?
