As of September 1st, the old way of making a connection to Hotmail (via a
protocol called WebDAV) has been discontinued. This means that as of now,
when you are trying to connect to Hotmail via the build-in HTTP method in
Outlook 2003 and Outlook 2007, you'll get the following error;

Task 'Hotmail: Folder:Inbox Synchronizing headers.' reported error
(0x800CCC33) : 'Access to the account was denied. Verify that your username
and password are correct.The server responded 'Forbidden'.

The only supported way of connecting to your Live Hotmail or MSN account is
via the Outlook Connector or POP3.

This forum is for questions on Office Outlook, not Outlook Express.
You should never post real mail addresses in public forums unless you're
prepared to deal with the spam and malware you'll get because of it.

Hotmail no longer allows WebDAV connection to its servers. That ended
in September last year. Change your account to a POP account and you'll
be able to access it again. See this for the proper settings:
