Outlook Express Compatibility with IE 7 - Rehan_00

20-Dec-06 05:50:00
Hi,
does anyone know if IE 7 works with the old version of Outlook Express? I
have not been able to use it since I have downloaded IE7. Outlook keeps
asking me to enter my username password and when I do it asks me again and
the loop goes on!
Does anyone have any suggestions?

I also have this problem, although I can get my email eventually, if I try
long enough, but it's so annoying! I installed the fix but I'm still getting
the authentication error. Is there anything else we can try?

Thank you.

I've typed the addresses in but it's made no difference. Couldn't see where
to do the cookies bit though.

Thought I would post this, it might help someone. I solved my OE
authentication error by deleting my email address and getting a new one. No
more problems since... touch wood!

Thanks for the help received.
