Hi Guys,
I have a main PC networked with a laptop. Outlook express has worked fine on the PC but not on the laptop. Suddenly OE has stopped working on the PC, it puts up a dialogue box asking for user name and password. When you put the details in it just keeps putting the same box up.
The ISP has been of no help yet. I had a call this morning saying they were working on it, and would ring me back thursday!
The mail system provided by the ISP works fine, but I prefer OE and it has my car club group in it with over 50 addresses.
Anyone any clues please.
G.

Sounds like an ISP problem and nothing can actually be done from your end... Phone you back thursday is a bit wet though!

If they are correct and it's just not being saved, then the answer should be here.

Thanks guys,
having done nothing it appears to be working now, although the box still comes up and it says error B/R corner I can receive and send mail.
