Thanks PB. I have checked out the "what is IMAP" in Google. I did
successfully, I thought, set up an IMAP account for my domain mail, but, as I
mentioned, for one reason or another my folders needed to be "refreshed" and I
didnt know what that meant, other than it wasnt working any more. I think the
problem is that my servers are not allowing external mail to be sent to Outlook
Express. :-(
