IMAP accounts

Has anyone had any problems with creating a IMAP account?
I was able to successgully connect a Webmail acct to Live mail yesterday at
a friend's house but I keep getting a log in error here at home when I ty to
do it.
It keep saying, can not access protected folder.

Would anyone know why?

Thank you,
ML

Re: IMAP accounts

Which mail provider?
Please right-click on the error message, copy, then paste it into a reply here.
We can't do much troubleshooting without that complete error message.

Re: IMAP accounts

Gary,
Three minutes after their first post, ML0940 posted a 'me too' to the import
messages thread.
In that thread, ML0940 can't access a saved email folder in Hotmail.
In this thread, ML0940 referred to a 'Webmail acct'.
Does ML0940 have a http and a IMAP problem?
Or is this a http problem and not IMAP?

Re: IMAP accounts

I agree that his problem statement is confusing, which is why I asked
him who his mail provider is, but he has not answered that question.
If he does produce the requested complete error message, that should
shed more light on the situation.
