I have two e-mail addresses, each with different servers. Up to two days ago, when I went to 'Send and Receive' on Outlook Express, I would be offered the choice of trying to find the first account from this server, or to cut off and connect to the other service. For some reason, this screen now no longer comes up and if I try to check both addresses, the connection is cut off. Outlook Express automatically checks for e-mails from time to time, on each occasion, it cuts my connection to the server. How can I make the system revert to its former behaviour?
Open Outlook Express, then click Tools, Options, and Connection. Select "Ask before switching..." and deselect "Hang up...". Click Apply and OK.
Click Tools and Accounts, then click Mail and double-click and an account. Click Connection and deselelct "Always connect...". Click Apply, OK, and Close.
