How can I get hotmail from outlook to my handheld?

Outlook syncs with Hotmail, however it sets up its own directory of mail
files in outlook. My Axim only syncs with the original outlook mail
directory? Is there a way to change directory that syncs with my axim?

I don't think so since HTTP mail accounts don't sync with external devices
(last I knew)

You can move your items to the default directory and then sync.

Hit Ctrl+6 - how many sets of folders do you see? You should see your
hotmail folders and the ones the device sync with. Copy the hotmail stuff to
the folders the device syncs with. Hint: use the by category view to make it
easier to select items and move them.

How do you have hotmail configured?

If you use the outlook connector you can get hotmail calendar and contacts
in outlook.

I am using outlook connector to get my hotmail, which i am able to access in
the navigation pane. The problem im having is that it is showing up as the
"default" email but there is a personal folder with an inbox and my
calendar,contacts etc...which is the outlook "inbox" and that is where my pda
is sync'in with. not my "hotmail". It is in the "personal folder" also in
the navigation pane. How do i get my hotmail account to be accessed from that
"outlook" inbox? so my pda can sync my email?
