Cannot Use MSN E-mail Service with Pocket Inbox

• The Microsoft Network versions 2.5, 2.51, 2.52, 2.6
• Microsoft Windows CE versions 1.0, 2.0 for the Handheld PC

SYMPTOMS

You cannot send or receive e-mail on MSN, The Microsoft Network, using a Handheld PC (H/PC) running Microsoft Windows CE.

CAUSE

The MSN e-mail servers use secure authentication to encrypt messages that are sent and received by an e-mail client. Windows CE includes an e-mail client that does not use secure authentication and therefore cannot send or receive e-mail through the MSN e-mail servers.

STATUS

Microsoft is researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
