OE is acting up
Ok, first of all, it feels very weird comming back to the old place, but what the heck.
I have Win 98se, and Outlook Express 5 installed. For some reason every now and then (at random times) my POP3 Incoming mail server changes from "mail.earthlink.net" to "localhost". This happens randomly and then I have to change the settings back again or else I can't receive messages.
Any ideas?

Boy o Boy.
Tell me, L&F - are you using Norton Antivirus 2000 or 2001 on this PC?

yes Bill brings up a good point
that will be totally normal if you are in fact running NAV 2k+ with the POP3 email scan enabled

no NAV, but PC-CIllin 2000 pop3-scanning. OK, so I will disable that. What is the reason for POP3 scanning to change my POP3 server?

the AV software have to RE-ROUTE the email locally into a TEMP place to scanne it then re-attach it, then deliver it back to your mail software
yeah crazy stuff, so much work for such a simple task
