Sorry, didn’t realise you needed those details.

I am using a 51k cable connection. Outlook Express should check e-mail when it loads, and collects enw e-mails fine. I can see a list of my old e-mails and can see the list of folders with all their emails. When I click on one of these, nothing loads in the preview box, and the same effect if I double click.

It simply tries to load for a VERY long time with nothing happening.
