When I click on Send / Receive button in Outlook Express, The existing internet connection automatically gets disconnected. The dialup dialog comes again for reconnection. Even after getting through this also the connectioin gets disconnected when I click on Send / Receive button. Every time, now, I am opening the website to see the mails.

No virus was found when I scanned.


My OS: XP -SP2
Antivirous: Quick Heal - Updated daily

I am Using Opera now instead of Outlook Express. But I wanted to know the reason why the OE is behaving like this.

In Outlook Express go to Tools > Accounts. Select the account click on Properties, go to Connection and disable Always connect to this account using: Do you have multiple connections configured?

Tuxfan, thanks for your guidance. I configured accordingly and it is working. I do have multiple connections configured.

Thanks again
