ME TOO!!! (okay, just kidding).
We have been having this problem for months with Outlook Express and
Outlook; in our case, the error message says something like "there was
an unexpected error on the server". The problem happens mostly with
messages that have M$-created attachments (Word, Excel, Power Point
documents), though it comes and goes depending on the phase of the moon
(some weeks it happens almost everyday; other times, like now, it just
works without problems). I've also noticed that this happens always with
dial-up connections; I have Outlook Express installed in my workstation
here at work, and I don't have problems retrieving any of the mails that
block our customers.
I havbe searched the archives, and even asked myself a question to the
list months ago. Apparently it's a mistery...
