How can I configure my MSN account (now on a PC) so that I can receive my mail in Entourage 2008. My MSN account is an HTTP account and Entourage says it won't read that type of account because of possible fraud.

How can I configure my MSN account (now on a PC) so that I can receive my mail
in Entourage 2008. My MSN account is an HTTP account and Entourage says it
won't read that type of account because of possible fraud.

Looks like you might have one of the free accounts.

Mail accounts from Windows Live Hotmail Plus (formerly MSN Hotmail Plus),
can be set up in Entourage by using the Account Setup Assistant.
Free Windows Live Hotmail accounts cannot be set up in Entourage. For
information about Windows Live Hotmail subscription services, visit the
Windows Live Hotmail sign-up page.
