Outlook Express email problem

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.newusers (More info?)

I just got a new computer with WinXPHome. All works OK except I can not
receive my email into OE 6, all email stays with AT&T's Webmail, which I do
not want to use. My old Win98 computer has no problems with getting my email.
The settings on both computers are the same. I have disabled NAV email
scanning. I have no idea what to do. I like OE, and want to continue using
it.... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What happens when you try to receive mail from your att account? Have you
configured the account correctly in Tools > Accounts > Mail?

Can you send using the account in OE?
