****Am moving this to Office queries Cannot receive using Outlook 2002*******

Question

Something happened about a month ago I am able to send (somewhat) but am completely unable to receive i have an Dimension 8250 2.4 512m ram running XP pro.

I have reinstalled outlook express (didn't help) and am wondering if i should reinstall Outlook??? If reinstalling is the way to go how do i uninstall Outlook only? I looked at add or remove Windows components but there is nothing there for Outlook

I have tried to disable all the usual firewall antivirus etc... Checked the pop and smpt addresses, I actually installed Thunderbird (a non Microsoft email program) and I went from one to the other with all protection turned off I was able to receive only one or 2 messages.Still in the end i am unable to consistently send and definitely not receive email. Arggggggggg

Recheck the servers settings again. This might be a typo, but you said SMPT instead of the correct SMTP. Look for any incorrect spaces or typos in the settings.
