Outlook Express Loses connection to server

[Riker41]

I have been running OE ver6 on XP SP2 for some time now.
Last week I began having a problem. From bootup then opening OE it runs fine.
After a while it stops and give an error message indicating it cannot
connect to server mail.charter.net (my ISP). Closing OE and reopening does
not help it requires full reboot to get it connected again. ISP checked
their side and no problem found.
What suggestions do you have to make repair? Help greatly appreciated.

For Outlook Express support, you'll want to ask in the
microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general newsgroup.

Since you're also using the web based newsreader rather than outlook
express, you might want to use
http://www.microsoft.com/communitie...px?dg=microsoft.public.outlookexpress.general
(or, since you're using Outlook Express for mail, look at the steps in
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/community/columns/newsgroups101.mspx for
how to set up OE to use the microsoft newsgroup server).
