HI there, If possible log onto you email account via your ISP home page and have a look at the emails from there,
delete the rubbish then try outlook express again and see if it pulls the rest through0 -
it could be an email with a large file attached that needs to be deleted to allow the rest through, it may be too large (some isp's limit the size of attachments)Ex forum ambassador
