5102 error

By the thread below, I would think that this error was a thing of the past...

I just 'upgraded' to Windows LiveMail after being told that Outlook Express would soon break. Windows Live Mail worked for about 8 hours before I started getting this message (any advice?):

Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail account. Windows Live Mail can't connect to the Hotmail server. To send and receive messages in your Hotmail account, go to http://hotmail.live.com on the Web, or try again later.

Server Error: 5102
Server Response: timedout to ip 10.1.64.50:2000
Server: 'http://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x8DE00002

Sounds like a Hotmail internal server error.
This is probably an issue of getting what you paid for. :-(

Press F1. If you don't see anything about this error in the
left-hand pane, put 5102 into the search box.

I get the same error now and then with a paid account, Qwest Choice DSL with
MSN Premium. In my experience wait ten or fifteen minutes and the mail is
sent or received normally. It's probably what the DeltaSync server does
when it is overloaded and trying to catch up, but not very graceful, is it?

Cheers,

Earle

There a few reasons why Outlook Express 'breaks' but if referring to the the inability of using OE with the new DeltaSync server
for accessing Hotmail yes, that will cease, as previously noted, on June 30.
OE *will* continue to function as an email and news client, including its use for Hotmail Plus accounts($20/yr) when configured
properly for the pop3/smtp server/settings.
