OE6 and Hotmail

G

GBH

I successfully added Hotmail to my accounts but due to the slow responses, I
deleted it. However it left behind the Hotmail folder and clicking on this
instantly crashes OE6. Obviously I did something wrong and would appreciate
advice on how to fully remove the Hotmail folders etc left behind.

TIA

All of your OE mail folders and messages and Hotmail folders are in:

C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Local Settings\Application Data\Identities\{GUID}\Microsoft\Outlook Express

Delete the hotmail.dbx

thanks for the prompt response. There is no hotmail.dbx file in that
location... this link shows part of the OE6 panel

Sorted it myself. Found the registry entry for hotmail in OE6 and deleted
it.

Thanks for your help
