Outlook Express 'security warning' issue

Hi:

I use XP Home SP2, with Outlook Express 6.0. I have two accounts in OE, my ISP email account, and my web host email account.

Whenever I open OE for the first time after booting up, and clicking on send/receive, I get an Internet Security Warning for the web host email account but not for the ISP account. Now when I finish send/receive and click send/receive again, I do not get any such message. If I close OE and then open it again, I get the message again for the first send/receive.

How can I prevent this message from appearing?

Here's the message:

Internet Security Warning

The server you are connected to is using a security certificate that could not be verified. Your certificate's CN name does not match the passed value. Do you want to continue using this service? (Yes/No)

I answer 'Yes' in order to receive email messages for this account. If I answer 'No' I cannot receive messages from this account.

Thanks.

Have you looked in internet accounts to see if it is in there if not click add and type the URL to the web mail.

To access Internet accounts, open Outlook Express, click on tools, click on accounts then click on All

Hey Trackrat:

I looked in internet options but saw nothing unusual. Where did you mean to Add and webmail address?
