I'm not sure if you may be suffering from the same symptoms that I have experienced with Hotmail. For quite some time I had a personal email account with Hotmail and I used to download any mail for storage on my laptop, rather than read them online. Gradually Hotmail have withdrawn the capability to logon and download with Outlook Express, quoting security issues as the reason why this had to happen. Not sure if this is what you are experiencing?
