XP Pro + Outlook 2007 can not receive mails

[Steventangerine]

This is the second notebook that I encountered the same problem. The earlier
one I had downgraded to Outlook2003. The problem is the Outlook 2007 can not
receive or retrieve mail from the POP3 server. Sending out of mail is not a
problem. While testing the e-mail account it shown O.K. for both incoming and
outgoing mails.

I went to command prompt and tried ping the pop3 server, it also shown to be
successful. But it just could not retrieve the mails and shows no item to
display in the inbox.

If you send an email to yourself are any err's reported?
If you have web access to your mail, it appears there?

No error reported by send an e-mail to myself.
Yes! I have web-access, and all the incoming mails are there.

I am having this same problem, did you ever find a solution to this?
It shows i am downloading my emails, but they never show up in my inbox.
They used to show up when i searched for them but not anymore, they arent
even doing that now. The inbox is empty.

Yes! I solve the problem by switching the mail server. Merak mail server does
not support Outlook2007. After switching to Smartermail everying is O.kay now.
