Installed Outlook 2007, have MSN premium been using with outlook express
2000 with no problems for 2yrs, configured Outlook for MSN pop3 account now I
get this error;

Receiving' reported error (0x800CCC0F) : 'The connection to the server was

Internet service provider (ISP).'

Disable email scanning by your anti-virus application. It provides no
additional protection, it may be causing the problem, and even Symantec says
it's not necessary:

<paste>
Disabling Email Scanning does not leave you unprotected against viruses that
are distributed as email attachments. Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect scans
incoming files as they are saved to your hard drive, including email and
email attachments. Email Scanning is just another layer on top of this. To
make sure that Auto-Protect is providing the maximum protection, keep
Auto-Protect enabled and run LiveUpdate regularly to ensure that you have
the most recent virus definitions.

I diabled the e-mail scanning by symantec and now I get a different error;

Receiving' reported error (0x80042108) : 'Outlook cannot connect to your
incoming (pop3) email server. If continue to receive this message, contact
you server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).'

Sending' reported error (0x80042109) : 'Outlook cannot connect to your

you server administrator or Internet service provider (ISP).'

My outlook express account still works
 
You will probably have to completely remove Norton, in order to remove all
remnents, then in OL detect/repair
 
My outlook express account still works

I have no Outlook Express accounts. I have a number of POP3 accounts, a
couple of IMAP accounts, and one HTTPMail account; all of which can be
accessed using MS Outlook Expess 6, among other clients (I prefer using
Pegasus Mail).

I have removed Norton and reinstalled it and I am still getting the same
errors.
I turned norton off and still errors.
I turned zone allarm off and still same errors.
Any other ideas?
 
Does your msn account signup pre-date Aug 2002, Pop3 accounts ceased
around that time.

Installation of Msn Premium via MSn Explorer on a legacy pop3 account
should have been converted the account to http.

What mail server, port and encryption are you using in Outlook Express
and trying to use in Outlook 2007
- this was asked earlier

To ensure valid responses from all, please provide the above

Ok, maybe I don't have an pop3 account. I got my MSN account in Feb 06.
My server in outlook express is;
http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
I have MSN premium account with Qwest.
I did the auto configure and it said (your HTTP e-mail account is
successfully configured) but now the Logon/password window keeps coming up
and will not let me send or receive anything. It just keeps asking for my
password.
What am I doing wrong now?
 
It sounds as if your forgot your password. It happens. You may have to
call customer support and get them to reset it.

Cheers,

Earle
 
I was able to logon to hotmail.com with no problem.
I used the other server name in outlook and still the logon/password window
keeps comeing up and will not let me in.

what else can I try?
 
If you can logon to hotmail that indicates your username and pw are
correct.
Thus the issue is local or the server.

Is this account the primary account and not a sub-account ?

You should be receiveing an error message of some sort.
- The last error message you posted was with the pop3 settings which
make those not applicable. What's the new message ?

Other options:
a.) Recreate the account anew
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287604/en-us
or
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/287424/en-us

Ignore the pop3 info in the first link(its not applicable and is
outdated)

Remove the account
Close OL
Open OL
Set it up manually

b.) your isp
c.) proxy settings in IE
e.) firewall
f.) av program
g.) try to setup in Outlook Express

I recreated the account, still the same thing.

Wish I had more to add. If you've tried every single suggestion and all
settings and server are correct and it works in OE but not in OL07, then
calling MSn or Qwest may be your only choices.
