Connecting MSOutlook to AOL e-mail

[Ron Weeks]

I have gone thru setup in MSOutlook to have it be my e-mail software.

After setup, it retrieves e-mail from AOL but after I close MSOutlook, it no
longer gets the email from AOL.

I go in and delete the existing e-mail account, recreate the account and
then it work again!

Can anyone provide hep?

What happens when you try to get mail the second time?
