PC running win2k on win2k domain. Problem with outlook express 6. Before today, worked fine. No new software added or changes made on machine. Today get the popup that "The server has rejected your login" with an error code of 800cccd1. The email is IMAP based, and using the same login and password as OE, can get into webmail with no problem. Even reset users password, wouldn't poll folders (said user cancelled even though that wasn't the case) and then gave the rejected login message again. Tried setting up email account again in OE along with internet connection wizared for LAN settings, no luck. Any ideas?

I'd be inclined to suspect a problem at the email server end. You mention a Win2K domain, is there another workstation you could set up the OE account on to try? I would call the tech support of your email provider. Sorry this is not a great help I know, but its the next thing I would do.

Wasn't a problem with the email provider, we are the email provider, was just a problem with oe. I deleted and recreated the account and it solved the problem.
