Outlook Connector problem with Outlook 2003

I did a fresh reinstall of XP and all the software a week ago. Before
that I had outlook setup with my hotmail account with outlook
connector and it worked really well and was better than using the web
interface. But sicne the reinstall I cant get it to work properly.
I installe office 2003, just like before, and followed by outlook
connector. Then started up outlook and it asked for the hotmail
username and password, which i filled out and is correct. It creates
the new profile and shows the structure of my folders. But there are
no messages in any of them. Even after I do send and recieve no
messages are downloaded, even the ones that are unread. At the outlook
connector toolbar shows that I am connected to the mail service and
shows the correct amount of storage that I have used. I have tried
everything I can think of. Its been a long time since I last set it
up, so I may be doing something wrong, I believe it has something to
do with Downloading folders, but I cannot find now way of doing that
in outlook.
Any ideas on how to get my messages into outlook. Your help would be
much appreciated.
Thanks

If you right click the Inbox folder-> Properties-> Folder Size... does its
size indicates that there are any items in it?
Also, if you have a virus scanner that integrates with Outlook, disable this
integration and try again.

There is no folder size for the inbox or the whole account. I did try
to send an email and it claimed that the server was offline, but the
log still read as connected.
Also, if you have a virus scanner that integrates with Outlook, disable this
integration and try again.

Anti-virus full disabled and the firewall. The only difference is that
I installed the new version with Slipstream SP3, are there any known
problems with outlook connector and SP3

Outlook certainly isn't telling you your text is inappropriate. Speak to
the people who run whatever tool you're using to post to this newsgroup.
You don't appear to be using either Microosft's web interface or a standard
newsreader.
