Default error message 'an unknown error has occurred'

When accessing my hotmail folders via Outlook Express 6, I always get the
system hanging fire and then receive the error message' an unknown error has
occurred'. If I try again immediately I then get through. I have tried
reinstalling the programme and reinstalling the hotmail account but no change.
Any ideas?

Default error message 'an unknown error has occurred'

It's a bug, usually only seen when OE polls the MSN/Hotmail server for the
first time in a session. No fix.

Workaround: Keep OE open and configured to poll the account(s) on a schedule
(e.g., every 30 minutes).
