5651 2000-08-01 03:33:00 When starting Outlook express5 after setting up the hotmail account it comes up with the error windows with the following:
'unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server account Hotmail Server http/services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp Protocol HTTPmail. port 0 secure(SSL) no socket error:12019. error number ox80004005.

Sorry to say, but that not fully correct, You can access Hotmail (free) via HTTP in Outlook Express.

But that depends on what server you’re on.

Note: I have two hotmail accounts & I can access them fine with Outlook Express :)

5657 2006-09-26 01:31:00 pcuserwinxp - are you trying to access it with POP, or are you trying to access it with HTTP? POP will not work with Hotmail, unless you pay, but HTTP will (using Outlook Express). somebody (208)

What version of Outlook Express do you have?

Is this a brand new hotmail account you just setup in the last few days or have you had this hotmail account for a while like a number of years?
