[SOLVED] Outlook not Receiving!

**Jason09** · 04-04-2009, 09:15 AM

Hi all,
I have a problem in MS Outlook 2007. Last night I restarted my computer, and this morning I got on Outlook. It was fine when I was last using Outlook before the restart, but I can't receive emails. It keeps asking me for username and password, and when I click Ok, it doesn't do anything different, but keep on sitting on the same percent complete, and not receiving emails.

I've tried exiting it and coming back in, and the same problem occurs. At first, I was getting an internal server error, but not anymore, it just can't receive.

Does anyone know what to do?
Thanks, Jason

It seems that now and again, the account settings for your email account get corrupted in Outlook 07. I'd delete the account and set it up again and see if that works. The only other thing I can think of is if your email host is having issues. Mine burps once in a while and I might not be able to download messages for a few hours and I get the same symptoms.

The problem was my ISP (Comcast.) My Internet had been very slow, but the issues seem to be pretty much over and I can receive emails.
