Default Where is mystery email?

Using XP, OE 6, My IEP is AT&T

Upon opening OE, message at lower right says messages are being loaded. I
get the musical sound saying it is completed yet there is no new email in
the Inbox or in Spamkiller (McAfee). I also checked blocked mail and the
webmail under my server AT&T which was empty (both the inbox and trash).
What else should I be checking to find what was downloaded?

Thanks

Disable Spamkiller and see if the problem persists. Outlook Express does not
work well with Norton or McAfee AV programs, as well as spam programs, and
Spamkiller probably tops the list.

Do you have a suggestion as to what I could replace OE and McAfee with...and
how I would do that? Thanks for your earlier reply.

Your ISP is "AT&T Worldnet", which is a completely different animal from
my
AT&T ("at&t Yahoo! HSI"). This is unfortunate because I have no experience
with AT&T Worldnet.

I am with Bruce on this one. Lose McAfee. Anything McAfee is more trouble
than it is worth. I also gave up on MS Outlook Express as my primary email
client because it is too weak in the filter rules department.

Simply download one of these, (I use Avast), and remove McAfee via the
Control Panel | Add/Remove programs.

I would suggest either Avast, (freeware), or NOD32, (not free).

In the case of Avast, choose Custom Installation and under Resident
Protection, uncheck: Internet Mail and Outlook/Exchange.
