After composing an e-mail utilizing my "Hotmail Plus" account, I receive the
following error...

"An unknown error has occurred. Account: 'XXXXX', Server:
'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol: HTTPMail,
Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 12019, Error Number: 0x80004005"

Upon closing OE6, I receive a prompt alerting me to messages in my outbox
and asking me if I wish to send. An affirmative reply results in the e-mail
being sent.

I'm using WinXP SP2, OE6, Hotmail Plus account and all updates applied.

Why will OE6 only send successfuly upon closing the program?

TIA

IE version? Is this a sudden, new problem or an ongoing one?

I would have to guess that it pre-dates, by some time, my IE7 update. I've
just not gotten around to trying to resolve the problem.

1. Make sure this update is installed:

Authentication fails when you use Outlook or Outlook Express to try to log
on to a HTTP-based mail server if you use Internet Explorer version 7.0:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/904942

2. If the behavior persists, see if Sending from the account works any
better in a new identity (OE File Identities Add new identity). If it
does, (a) compact all folders in the old identity, (b) import messages from
the old identity into the new one (don't bother with any Hotmail folders),
and then (c) delete the old one (File Identities Manage Identities).

An unknown error has occured.

Configuration:
Account: Hotmail
Server: http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
User name:

I then sent a test message which appeared to send flawlessly. I logged out,
then into the receiving identity and the message was there. Upon logging back
in to the "test" account, it immediately "synched" with my Hotmail account.

Other than the initial glitch, it appears, at least for now, that the new
"Hotmail" identity is functioning normally.

However, as I used all the default options, I'm now wondering if changing my
account options might be problematical in some way.

If the account's now working in the new identity...

(a) compact all folders in the old identity, (b) import messages from
the old identity into the new one (don't bother with any Hotmail
folders),
and then (c) delete the old one (File Identities Manage Identities).

To avoid such problems in the futu

- Don't use Inbox or Sent Items (local OE folders) to archive messages.
Move them to other local folders created for this purpose.

- Empty both Deleted Items folders daily.

- Disable Background Compacting [not available in SP2] and frequently
perform a manual compact of all OE folders while "working offline". More at
http://www.insideoe.com/files/maintain.htm

- WinXP SP2 only: Do not shut down your machine while Windows is
automatically compacting your message store.

- Though it does NOT scan your Hotmail, your anti-virus application's email
scanning feature can also cause such corruption. Disable it. It provides
no additional protection.
