I get this error when I try to set-up OE to read my
hotmail.
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, Error
Number: 0x8007007E

It works fine on my other 2 computers running Windows 98.
This one is running Windows XP when it works.

This newsgroup is for support of Outlook 97, 98, 2000, 2002 & 2003 from the
Office family for Windows PCs. For Outlook Express (OE) support try posting
