SYMPTOMS
========
When you use Windows Messaging, Microsoft Outlook 97, or Microsoft Outlook
Express in Windows NT to access your Internet e-mail on MSN, The Microsoft
Network, the MSN Sign-In screen may repeatedly prompt you for your user name and
password. This prompt may occur even though you are typing the correct sign-in
information.
CAUSE
=====
This behavior can occur if you are using a POP3/SMTP Internet e-mail program and
your MSN e-mail account has not been migrated from the MSN Classic e-mail
servers to the MSN POP3/SMTP servers.
RESOLUTION
==========
To work around this behavior, use MSN version 2.5 on a computer running
Microsoft Windows 95 to migrate your MSN e-mail account to the MSN POP3/SMTP
servers. After this migration is complete, you can use Windows Messaging,
Outlook 97, or Outlook Express in Windows NT to access your Internet e-mail on
the MSN SMTP/POP3 servers.
For additional information about migrating your MSN e-mail account, see the
