Windows Live Mail was working fine and then all of a sudden it stopped syncing emails from Hotmail. It has continued to correctly sync (send and receive mail) for my other accounts. When I try to sync my hotmail account I get the following error message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Hotmail (alexsmookler) account.

Server Error: 0x800488EB
Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800488EB

I have tried deleting the account and re-adding it and then I get this message:

Windows Live Mail is synchronizing this account. Check back in a few minutes to read your messages.

I keep checking back but nothing changes. My emails do not come in and this message continues to be displayed.

I have also tried "repairing" Windows Live Mail via the control panel on my computer. This did not do anything to help the problem.

Please advise.

Thank you.
