V6.2.0133 direct from messenger.msn.com
Win ME
Plus 3.01.94

The symptoms have happened with both 'virgin' install, and Window's X version (Just wanted to clarify that I have done both)

I have 4 fields filled out on POP3 feature as follows.

(Ya know... as I started to fill this part out, I realize that I am using Hotmail Popper v2.1.0 for my hotmail.com/msn.com accounts, so this might be an issue. I will have to experiment on my ME system tomorrow, and I will follow up with it.)

But for now these are the paramaters and results:

Account 1:
Email address: blah@msn.com
Server: 127.0.0.1 : 110
Login: blah@msn.com
Password: *******

Account 2:
Email address: glob@msn.com
Server: 127.0.0.1 : 110
Login: glob@msn.com
Password: *******

Account 3:
Email address: dodah@hotmail.com
Server: 127.0.0.1 : 110
Login: dodah@hotmail.com
Password: *****

Account 4:
Email Address: work@mortgagecompany.net
Server: mail.mortgagecompany.net
Login: work@mortgagecompany.net
Password: ********

The master signin is on a @hotmail addy (not that that is relavant). Everything has responded just like it did on v2 of plus, as i've followed along with the same criterea all along.

When first pulling messenger out of the task bar, I will see all current unread mails in the master hotmail account displayed properly, then after the delay I will see all total mails (read and unread) from all the remaining 4 accounts also displayed properly. At some point after this, is when the X number of mails line garbles like the screeen shots that you have seen so many of. Hopefully that helps clarify things a bit for you.

I will test everything again tomorrow using non hotmail/msn accounts that I have from other servers, just in case the hotmail popper might be causing the conflict on my ME system.

If I have missed any steps that would help you, or more information is needed, either leave a message here, or catch me on my signatures site, as I'm one of the bosses over there
