Outlook84
Suddenly, Outloox started asking for my password. this started just today

for some reason. I have to give it each and every time I want to get my

Email. My service (Yahoo DSL) says it's a problem with Outlook. Is it?

I can see by the number of 1-entry posts that this newsgroup is pretty dead.

Loads of problems, but nobody is willing/able to help anyone. I thought MS

monitored these newsgroups fairly well but I guess I was wrong.

MS does not monitor this group. It is a peer to peer group.

Most of the posts that go unanswered do so because the answer has already

been given innumerable times or the inquiry contains too little information

to provide a guess.

Both appear to be the case with your post.

time to wait for each past page to load to see if yout question has already

been asked. In any case, most questions don't have the subject in them

anyway and you have to open them to find out what they contain. Shame on

you, sir. You are an MVP and can't even give an answer without flaming the

person?

Oh come on. You thought that was flaming?

All I did was point out that you provided none of the information that would

be necessary to solve your problem and that countless other posts exist that

address an identical problem.

The "simple" solution for you would depend on your Outlook version, your

operating system, and a more accurate description of the steps that produced

your problem--none of which you have provided. That is the reason your post

went unanswered and will remain so.

If you think MVP's are here to read your mind and spoon-feed exactly the

information that only you require, then you do not understand how Usenet

works. Here is a good place to learn:

Russ' response was certainly no flame.
