Cannot save incomming mail server (POP)

Thanks Steve. I took your lead and focused on McAfee. I disabled the spamkiller and now it works. You don't know how many hours I've been messing with this.

I appreciate your responses!

Thanks a mil!

Hello Steve. I'm running McAfee. This is eating my lunch.

Try uninstalling then reinstalling McAfee.

Steve

I have exactly the same problem on my Dimension 9150 (same as XPS400).  Every time I reboot, the incoming mail address gets changed, but only on my administrator account.  Other accounts everything works fine.  To get around this, I made myself another account and that's where I'll do email.  I tried disabling Spamkiller, but the problem didn't go away - still seems to load Spamkiller in the background even though it's disabled.  I think I will just uninstall McAfee altogether, as I still have subscription left on Norton Antivirus on my old computer - just move it across to the new machine.  If I uninstall McAfee with the Add/Remove programs, is that sufficient, or is there a trick?  Also, you mentioned uninstalling McAfee and then reinstalling.  How can you do that without the CD, since Dell doesn't send any?  Thanks in advance.

I suggest that you call Dell and ask them politely to send all the CDs necessary to restore your computer in case of a hard disk crash.  They will argue that your system has PC Restore on it that will restore you computer to the as-shipped conditions, but you must argue that this will do no good if you need to reinstall Windows and application software in the case of a hard drive crash.

Thanks, I'll do that.  What about the uninstall of McAfee?  Anything special or tricky?
