I have an OE "account" linked to a Hotmail account.

I send a message to myself, then read it in OE by clicking Send/Recv.

The first time works fine.

After I delete the message from OE, how can I pop it again from Hotmail?

I have tried deleting the message from the Deleted Items folder even before
I read it in OE, to no avail.

I have tried exiting and restarting OE, not to avail.

I have even tried Tools > Options > Maintenance > Clean Up Now > Reset with
Local Files set to Outlook Express, to no avail.

I have also tried toggling Mark As Read and As Unread in hotmail.com.

Something -- OE or Hotmail -- is remembering that the message was already
popped.

How do I reset that state so that it can be re-popped?

Details....

I am using OE 6.00.2900.5512(xpsp.080413-2105), MS Win XP SP3 with IE
6.0.2900.5512.xpsp_sp3_gdr.080814-1236.

The OE mail "account" is set up as a POP3 server with "Include account when
receiving mail" and "Leave a copy on server" set.

Pop3uidl.dbx is the file that remembers

Yup! Deleting that file did the trick. Thanks much.

Note that closing OE and deleting POP3UIDL.DBX from your message store will
"reset" all POP3 accounts, not just the Hotmail account.
