I have installed Outlook Express 5.0 and Compuserve 2000 on
a Windows 98 2nd OS. A week ago I was doing fine getting
and sending email. Now I try to use Outlook Express and
it does not connect with compuserve to allow getting or
sending email. It tries and then times out. I have
checked the setup and accounts and all looks fine. I have
another computer with the same setup and it is working fine
without trouble.

I have also tried going directly to the Outlook website on
Compuserve and it will not let me enter.

Appreciate any insights on the next things to do.
Regards,
Charlie

If those groups aren't carried on the news server that's carrying this group
try using msnews.microsoft.com (MS's public news server that's the source
for all the microsoft.public newsgroups). The links under the newsgroup
references are for use with MS's web newsreader (not exactly the best way to
post but it works for some people)

Also a good source of Outlook Express info can be found here:
