Installing Hotmail account on Outlook

[Stephen Bradley]

I had no problem installing my Hotmail account on Outlook
Express. All I needed was the address and password. It
did the rest. Now I am installing it on Outlook. When I
give it my Hotmail address it will only give me a POP3 or
IMAP option. There is no HTTP option. Is this unique or is
Outlook on Office XP normally like this? Thanks.

Outlook 2002 allows you to add a Hotmail account? Why is this not happening
for you? Are you selecting the account type as http?
