One of our home computers began getting "Server Error: 0x800488EB Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx'" last week.  The other computers are fine.  I've deleted and rebuilt the email account several times.  I tried to manually setup the account using POP etc. and it worked but would not bring any email history in.  HELP

Hi, when I try to log into Windows Live Mail I get the following popup message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the [redacted] account.

Server Error: 0x800488EB

Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800488EB

This started yesterday and it's driving me crazy.  I am able to use Outlook without any trouble.  Please help.

[Original title: Windows Live Mail Problem]

All my mails do not come into my Live mail. Gives me error continuously;

Unable to send or receive messages for the account. Server Error: 0x80048820 Server: 'https://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v2.0.0/Sync.aspx' Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x80048820

Please assist to solve this problem. I have not been able to receive emails for days. I now go through the browser, which can be cumbersome checking old and new mails. Thanks.

I have been getting this error code. I have installed the newest Live Mail. I have followed all suggestions including turning the date back. When I did that I was able to sync the account and receive email, but when I put the date back to the correct time, I starting getting the error code again.

I have 4 @msn.com email accounts that I access through Windows Live mail.  Starting yesterday, May 9, 2014, I get an error message for 2 of them: 

Unable to send or receive messages for the Msn (xxxxxxx) account.

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

BUT ONLY 2 OF THEM!  It looks like there are issues with the same 2 account in Outlook.  Anyone have any ideas to resolve these issues?  I have read & tried several solutions that have been offered, but nothing has worked yet.

After about 7 years or so of using the same email account, 5 days ago it suddenly stopped working.  I get the following error message:

Unable to send or receive messages for the Msn (XXXXXXX) 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 researching for a couple of hours.  I am unable to find a solution and am at my wits end...the whole thing is very bizarre.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
