Default OE and Hotmail: Authorization Error

Where do I find the User Authentication section ?

None, but the Hotmail servers are notoriously "flakey." Similar errors with
a non paid account are what caused me to stop attempting to use the
integration with Outlook Express and instead use only the web interface. If
it's not a paid account, you may expect continuing errors in the future and
I don't think Hotmail has any interest in improving the service for its non
paying customers. Although you might want to recheck that your settings are
all in agreement with the following:

In Internet Explorer (not Outlook Express), click on the Tools/Internet
Options/Security, and click on the appropriate zone from above (Internet or
Restricted). Click on Custom, and scroll all the way down to the bottom
(User Authentication).

If OE is set to use the Internet Zone, then the User Authentication section
should say "Automatic logon only in Intranet zone".

If OE is set to use the Restricted zone, then the User Authentication
section should say "Prompt for user name and password".

I've already add it to my safe sites, and the problem has been going on
for
atleast a month now, so I don't think that it's a server problem. Any
other
ideas?

That usually indicates a server (Hotmail) problem. You can try reading
this
KB article:

OLEXP: Error Message: "Unable to Poll for New Messages" When You Use
Hotmail
with Outlook Express:

Also make sure you have cookies enabled and add microsoft.com to your
trusted sites in Internet Explorer. Often, just closing Outlook Express,
reopening it and trying again solves the problem.

Recently, when I try send/receive mail with my Hotmail account, I get
the
following error.

Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account:
'Hotmail',
Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol:
HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Authorization Required', Port: 0,
Secure(SSL):
No, Socket Error: 87, Error Number: 0x800CCC32

This is an old account that had been working fine up until recently.
Then
one day this happened. Any ideas? Thanks.
