Re: email with OE6sp1, Compuserve & website mail

Is 'Scuphead Auctions' a Compuserve account (e.g.,
)?

Check with Compuserve, assuming it's your ISP. Compuserve mail can only be
accessed
(received/sent) in OE when set up as IMAP, not POP3 as you have it. This
option is /not/ available to all Compuserve subcribers, BTW.

I wasn't aware that you COULD use CompuServe with OE. That may be your
