I have a basic Compuserve email account (pop) that I have been using with
Outlook 2000 for years, but stopped sending and receiving about three weeks
ago after I got rid of two old and useless accounts (I just got tired of the
error messages that I would get).
I know the account is active because the Outlook email works just fine on my
laptop.
I have checked the configuaration, added another account, and done about
everything except delete the service and re-add it. I have not yet unistalled
and reinstalled Outlook yet either. What is weird is that there are no error
messages when I send and receive, just the usual "checking for new messages"
box that has always appeared. Then it disappears with nothing sent or
received.
I am thinking of copying some of the Outlook configuration files from my
laptop to my desktop to see if that helps, too.
Does anyone have any ideas?
 
Well, now it has started working again, just a few days after I posted this.
This has got me really perplexed, but as long as it is working, I don't think
I should touch anything.
Thanks anyways.
