Honestly yrag...I haven't got a clue as to what your asking...all I know is one day it was working fine and the next it wasn't. Would be nice if I could find a link to download this CMC Mail Provider...did some searching for it but have yet to find one or find out how to install one.The only mail accounts I'm aware of are my Outlook Express & MSN email account.


And thanks MGiff for the link, but I've seen numerous explanations about it, but nothing as to how to resolve it and reinstall one.

Can't find "settings" anywhere in my Outlook Express, but I'm pretty sure it's set as a Pop account. And I don't see MSN running in the tray.

Somehow I must have de-leted this CMC Mail Provider thing. The question is...can I reinstall it somehow?

script problem on the board...one problem at a time

Go to Control Panel/Mail. Highlight account and click on properties and it will tell you how you're set up.

No Yrag...not on a network...just a basic dialup connection...and no...I do not see Q330994 update.

Ok Yrag...really dumb question...when you say OE...this is...and no laughing... Ok...you can laugh a little...

Duh....

No it isn't...and before I uninstall it...unless your going to tell me not to after the question you just asked...where would I reinstall it from? I was looking for a disk to reinstall it but can't find anything with it on... never had to do this before so I'm pretty much twiddling my thumbs here.

To the best of my knowledge it is MSN9 as my email client...if thats what your asking. I don't use Hotmail.

When it comes down to it it's really not a major problem...I have a work around by sending whatever to my documents folder and creating a shortcut there and then draging it to my desktop. I was just hoping to restore this thing to it's original operating condition. What I think happened is I installed some old powertoys in order to add "send to any folder" to my sendto functions. And in the process I got some stuff added to the menu...such as "cmc mail", and since it wasn't there before and I had no idea why it was there but thought it was more spyware or something along that line...so...I...uh...de-leted it... Whoopsie!

I tried restoring it by uninstalling the powertoys and reinstalling them...thinking this would restore it...but that didn't do the trick.

I should be flogged!

Sorry about that Yrag...I had forgotten about the powertoys thing. I just called msn to see if they knew anything about it and they thought it might be something to do with OE, so we went through the configuration steps...again...and it didn't change anything. So the sendto problem is a little annoying but nothing critical. So I'll just leave it as it is until I can find a definite fix for it...Oh...and until then...I won't play around with any tweaks for it...
