I spent about an hour looking through all of my emails, but I didn't see any
invalid characters. :+( "Michael Santovec" wrote: See this article Error Message When Retrieving E-mail Messages from Hotmail Account Using Outlook Express (Not Found - 0x800CCC34) http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=252520 It's talking about messages but indicates that the error is caused by an invalid character in a folder name.

I don't have any folders with a / character. Do you think that when I stop
using WebDAV to access my hotmail account, that the syncing address book feature may work again?

Then I'd assume something's wrong on Hotmail's end, Steve, or they've already started preparing for the end of WebDAV support. (In fact, I just tried doing such a sync and got the same error so that last bit may be true.) Do you think that when I stop using WebDAV to access my hotmail account, that the syncing address book feature may work again? Synchronizing Address Book with Hotmail Contacts is entirely-WebDAV dependent. When support for WebDAV ends on 01 September, you will not be able to sync at all. I'd strongly recommend getting all your ducks in a row and switching to (or at least adding) POP3 access no later than 25 August, just in case there's some additional tweaking you'll need to do. AFAIK, you should be able to access the account via POP3 and WebDAV simultaneously (at least until 01 September). Keep in mind that once WebDAV support ends, you won't be able to access any of your Hotmail-specific folders (cf. http://articles.techrepublic.com.com...403shu01_C.gif) in OE anymore. Of course, all of them will still be available at www.hotmail.com. -- ~PA Bear Steve B. wrote: I don't have any folders with a / character.

My suggestion was that If you recently added or updated a CONTACT, it
might have an invalid character in it, since you are unable to synchronize contacts. The reasoning was that since that error code can occur when trying to synchronize messages if an invalid character is used in a folder name, then if that error code occurs when trying to synchronize Contacts it might indicate an invalid character in a contact. -- Mike - http://TechHelp.Santovec.us "Steve B." wrote in message ...
