290240 2004-11-10 09:30:00 Does it really say this?

Account "pop3xtra.co.nz"

If so, thats the problem.

It should be "pop3.xtra.co.nz" (it has a "." after pop3

The error should be 0x800CCC0E (they are zero's not the letters "O" or "o" I believe.

290242 2004-11-10 09:55:00 Have you deleted the Account in OE and recreated it?!?! Cave Servant (6124)
290243 2004-11-10 10:02:00 Cave Servant........NO, what will that do ?? PJ Poppa John (284)
290244 2004-11-10 10:05:00 The Account itself could be corrupt, not likely but its the first thing i would do.

As you know there is no problem with Xtra, and you can surf the net. You have turned off AVG and Sygate and tested. Just keep elimating possibilities

290245 2004-11-10 10:06:00 A cheeky question here...

Have you restarted the computer since the problem started??

290246 2004-11-11 04:13:00 WHAT THE HECK HAPPENED???? ?:|
Our power has been cut off for several hours . Just came on-line . . . reset router . . . . went back to Xtra help desk for info that wasn't sent yesterday ( or that we didn't receive ;) ) to the Xtra mail box, and whilst talking to the guy at Xtra . Outlook Express suddenly popped up, alive and healthy and full of mail .

AND . . . . GODFATHER . . . . I am innocent . Either that, or the whole thing was my fault and sheer power of my personality ZAPPED it back into life . :^O

Computers . . . . don't you just love 'em!!

290247 2004-11-11 04:17:00 I would suspect that resetting the router may have been the key.

The port may have been blocked?

Innocent ... ?
You surely don't expect me to believe that!

290248 2004-11-11 04:20:00 P.S.....thanks for the suggestions and help, you guys.

Cave Servant :- Yes, we tried the "switch it off- kick it-call-it-very-nasty-names" (i.e "you naughty little computer" ) .....all to no avail. However....whatever....all is now forgiven, and we WILL be letting it be part of our family again. :p.

Gave P.J chance to catch up on his knitting. :^O
