I get this message when trying to send an email file. How do I fix it. Access to the account was denied. Verify that your username and password are correct. Account: 'Hotmail', Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol: HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Forbidden', Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 998, Error Number: 0x800CCC331 person needs an answerI do too

Well, did you vertify that your username and password were correct? Can you log into the webmail for Hotmail successfully?-B- http://www.officeforlawyers.com Author: The Lawyer's Guide to Microsoft Outlook

The service you are trying to connect to was taken down in September last year. If you're using Outlook Express, you can only access Hotmail via POP3. You could also download and install Windows Live Mail to enable you to synchronize your Hotmail account folders using HTTP. If you have an ISP mail account, you could use the ISP's SMTP server to send mail. Noel
