Hi David I've run NAV 2003 on W2k/XP Home/XP Pro with a variety of
email clients while I was looking for a replacement to my much loved
Forte Agent. It has always worked 'out of the box' and shows an
indicator when scanning out going mail and a much smaller indicator in
the task bar (in the form of a small envelope, easy to miss) when
scanning incoming mail. I have found it very effective in picking up
problems.

I don't change any settings when installing it except for the silly
scheduling and automatic updates it sets up (it's my PC, I decide when
it does what!).

I also have Hotmail Popper installed since I use a Hotmail address in
news groups. Hotmail Popper also uses Localhost (127.0.0.1) and they
work fine together.

Do you have anything else running that may affect NAV? Is it set up to
check mail (sorry, silly question)? If you have been trying different
email apps is it possible that one of them is interfering? It my be
worth un-installing any you have tried and don't want to keep (and I
found lots in that category!). Have you carried out a system scan with
up to date virus signatures just in case it's a virus causing the
problem?

Otherwise it may just be necessary to work through the settings again
although that can be soul destroying. It is worth persevering, it does
work but I suppose there may be a combination of apps/settings that
confuse it.
