HOTMAIL & OUTLOOK 2000

[KEITH]

WHEN I TRY TO SET UP A MAIL ACCOUNT IN OUTLOOK TO
RETREIVE MAIL FORM MY HOTMAIL ACCOUNT, AS WITH OUTLOOK
EXPRESS, I AM NOT GIVEN THE OPTION OF A HTTP SERVER. WHY?
HOW CAN I SET OUTLOOK 2000 TO RETREIVE MY MAIL FRON
HOTMAIL AUTOMATICALLY LIKE EXPRESS?

Please don't post in all capital letters -- it makes it look like you're
shouting, and it's very difficult to read. Thanks

Outlook 2002 is the first version with Hotmail support included. If you run
Outlook 2000 in Internet Mail Only mode, you could possibly use the
workaround listed here:

There are also a couple of 3rd party programs listed on that page that you
may be able to use to "POP" your Hotmail messages into Outlook.
