I have had the "same" problem for a few weeks now. I have to leave Outlook on a forced "send & receive" to get any mail. It gets to 85% and hangs, telling me (today) it is downloading 1 of 287 and that it will take 6 hours!!! I had someone send me some work home, they tried 2 e-mail addy's. 1 was bounced by the server and the other got through!

I don't use webmail, but I logged in to try the "fix" listed above; webmail says that there is nothing in my "inbox" ! I am now confused. Any of you good souls got any words of hope and encouragement?
