Hi Gloria, I'm not very familiar with the error message that you're receiving, but after some research it appears that you sometimes get this message when working with a Hotmail account. Are you using Outlook to check your Hotmail email? If Hotmail is somehow involved, Microsoft has a few articles to help with the error message that you are received. I recommend taking a look at these articles, as one of them may be able to help: OLEXP: Error Message: "Unable to Poll for New Messages" When You Use Hotmail with Outlook Express Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account: 'Hotmail', Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol: HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Forbidden', Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 998, Error Number: 0x800CCC33 OLEXP: "Unable to Poll for New Messages on Your HTTP Server" Error Message with Hotmail I hope this helps.
