Hello,

After install SP2 I can't connect to hotmail server from OE. I can from
www.hotmail.com. Error message is "service is unavailable" but I know it
isn't true.

Can anybody help me please?

Thank's in advance and best regards.

If it's a free account you wont be able to. A newsletter went out ages ago
to that effect. SP2 users were among the first to go and the rest will
follow very shortly.

Thank's Peter,

but my account isn't free. I have pay account from 2 years ago.

Is possible this problem is about ports locked in new windows firewall?. I
think OE ports are 110 and 25.

Very thank's for your quickly response.

Best regards,

Things are screwy on MSN/Hotmail's end right now. Until they clear up the
debris, use www.hotmail.com to access the account.

Otherwise, post the complete error message.
