Yes, I know it's embarrassing to still have to deal, though rarely, with that 
stuff.

Outlook 2000 on a new XP machine was 'updated' by the user by importing his 
old outlook pst-file. I am not quite sure what exactly he's done but ever 
since e-mail cannot be received anymore.

To be exact, authentication and e-mail check is successful, however, the 
actual e-mail can't be received. It looks like outlook 'forgot', or does not 
know where to put the actual e-mail file so it drops the mail server 
connection prematurely. Outgoing mail is fine.

Send/receive for the same account on a different machine is completely fine. 
It's not a mail server issue.

The whole thing looks to me like that the inbox got stuffed up during the 
import. I have never seen such a case. Anyone ever had that happen to them, 
or any ideas as to what it is and how it can be fixed short of an outlook 
re-install. I had a look through all those myriads of outlook settings 
without a positive yet.

Cheers

Johannes
