outlook email swaps Incoming mail server for localhost

B

Hi! My Outlook 2003 keeps changing my entry in the email settings field
"Incoming mail server (pop3)" to "localhost" and appending my entry to the
username field.
How can I get it to leave it as I input it?

You'd have to remove the anti-virus or anti-spam program that apparently is acting as a local POP3 server after it downloads your messages from your real mail server's Inbox. I suspect you'll want to leave things the way they are.
