Windows XP: Outlook Express 6 + Hotmail = Forbidden?
Outlook Express 6 + Hotmail = Forbidden?
by nine8102 - 3/30/04 11:35 AMOk, let me start by saying that absolutely no changes have been made to my computer, no settings made or unmade, nothing new with the firewall and no downloads.
Saturday night, I was able to check my email using outlook express and it was all good.
Sunday morning, I go to check my email and i get the following pop-up box:
"Access to the account was denied. Verify that your username and password are correct"
when i click on the Details button, i also get:
Forbidden
Configuration:
Account: 1 - Nine8102
Server: http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
User name: nine8102@hotmail.com
Protocol: HTTPMail
Port: 0
Secure(SSL): 0
Code: 800ccc33
I've checked all the settings on all accounts and they are as they should be. I even deleted and re-did one of them, to no avail.
Can anyone shed any light? Thanks!
Happens sometimes.

Until it does simply use your browser to access your hotmail account.
