"Unable to display the folder"

I am running Outlook Express, and when I go into tools
-> accounts -> view or change current -> change -> more
settings -> and click on the advanced tab to add... a
mailbox, I type in the correct mailbox name (i.g. ASFAX)
and click add. Click OK throughout, and when I get back
to my Folder List, I click on the ASFAX and it
says "Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Outlook
could not access the specified folder location."

I know the name of the folder is correct, and it works
fine. Other people in my organization can access this
mailbox just as doing what i did above. What might be
causing outlook to not allow me to access the mailbox? Do
I have to change any settings?

Thanks,
Brent
 
This is a group to support Outlook from the Office group of programs.
Outlook Express is a part of Internet Explorer and is a quite different
program, despite its similar name..

You will probably get a faster and more expert answer if you post this to an
Outlook Express news group.

Try posting in one of these newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie5.outlookexpress for OE 5.x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie55.outlookexpress for OE 5.5x
microsoft.public.windows.inetexplorer.ie6_outlookexpress for OE 6.x
microsoft.public.internet.outlookexpress.mac for OE for Macintosh

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).

A good website for information on OE is:
