how can i make hotmail default to the personal folder?

L

Leigh

I now have office 2003, but when i link to my hotmail and make this the
default it does not goto the personal folder (and sub folders) but to a
different folder-
hotmail(1). Therefore I have to select this folder to access mail rather
than it occuring automatically.

Thanks

Hotmail uses an http folder, Outlook uses a .pst folder. You will need to
manually copy your Hotmail items to your Outlook personal folders.

Post all replies to the group to keep the discussion intact. Due to
the (insert latest virus name here) virus, all mail sent to my personal
account will be deleted without reading.
