Error #0x80004005

I forgot to add that we have the Hotmail Plus account - not just the free
version.

My husband and I have an MSN mail account that we both use, each on our own
computer. He prefers to access it via Outlook Express 6.0 and I prefer to use
Hotmail. We both have Windows XP on our computers.

Recently, I tried the new Hotmail Beta program for a very short time and
found it difficult and slow so I switched back to original Hotmail. Now my
computer is fine with either Hotmail or Outlook Express but he cannot use his
Outlook Express. He can use Hotmail and it is the original version. He gets
the following message:

Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account: 'MSN Mail (our
)', Server:
'http://oe.msn.msnmail.hotmail.com/cgi-gin/hmdata', Protocol: HTTPMail,
Server Response: 'Redirect to partner', Port: 0, Secure (SSL): No, Error
Number 0x80004005

Of course the "our address" is our actual email address - I'm just leaving
it off so I don't get any spam. And I'm not sure the Beta thing has anything
to do with it . . .

Can anyone help us out there? This is very frustrating.

Thanks!
