MSN Premium accounts with @msn.com .NET Passport can use the following server:

POP3: pop3.email.msn.com

SMTP: smtp.email.msn.com

Need to tick "SPA" in Outlook Express and Microsoft Office Outlook.

Can this 2GB @msn.com also?

tried using these settings for the 2 GB msn account I created today, but POP3 server type doesn't work.

had to choose server type as HTTP to access the account via MS Outlook 2003.

So no pop3?

Well i always understood that when i migrated to the new MSN 8 from the old MSN 2.:p:p that pop3 would be disabled and i won't be able to use it anymore.

However if they do bring it back it's probably just for old MSN accounts or paying customers as it is a different server.

So no pop3?

No pop3 , but it can still be set up to work with Outlook, and O.E...:yes:s:
