I currently use MSN Explorer to check my e-mail, and surf. i would like to
make Outlook Express Ver. 6 my e-mail client.( letting me check my e-mail
from it) I need an "Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) server and an
Outgoing mail (SMTP) serve

Are you using a POP3 account or a Hotmail account?

Very few name@msn.com accounts are POP3 anymore, Bryan. Only a few "legacy"
subscribers.

I assume someone who uses MSN Explorer (AKA MSN9) is referring to a
name@msn.com account.

A little known feature of MSN Explorer is to uses POP3 against a non-hotmail
account (@msn.com, @hotmail.com, etc.).

For Example, it's possible to use MSN Explorer against Earthlink servers.
Kinda cool, huh?

OIC. Guess there might be life for <quote/unquote> OE after LH afterall
(and what a karmic delight that it's reverting to MSN users <VBEG>).
