Does anyone do this? If so, can you use Outlook for everything BUT email
with Outlook Connector?

Before I even try, I just wanted to see whether someone has tried this.

Thanks

I have used Outlook 2007 & Windows Live Mail on the same Windows 7 computer
w/out issue. However I didn't test in regards to Hotmail as I use Gmail.

Can you set up Outlook Connector to only get Calendars and Contacts from
Live? I don't want to get mail in Outlook.

I tried finding an answer for this the last 1/2 hour and couldn't find a way
of accomplishing it. Best guess is that if you try to opt out of the "key"
folders the connector supports (e.g. Inbox), it will just re-enable it.

I have done that without problems.

So, I set up Connector and then just delete the email account from Outlook?
Does it work like WLM and sync Calendars and Contacts properly?

Thank you,

What's the point of setting up the connector is you're not going to have an
account defined?
Does it work like WLM and sync Calendars and Contacts properly?

I see the same data in Outlook as I see in WLM.
