Using Web Based Mail (Hotmail) in Entourage?

J

jamesmcnee

How do I set up Entourage to use web based mail as the email?

I know there must be an easy way but ...

And is there a way to have more than one email address use the same
entourage account? For example I have a hotmail address and an email
from school -- both of which I access from the web. It would be great
to have them coming through entourage and link with my address book
etc.

Any advice would be great.

I'm using entourage 2004 for Mac version 11.3.6 and running OSX
10.4.10

thanks

You can only use ENtourage for the paid hotmail accounts. Tools>Accounts
will offer Hotmail as one of the options when you try to add a new
account.
As for the School account, it depends on what type of account it is. You
can also use Tools>Accounts and select the proper type of account there
(likely POP or IMAP). You'll need to enter all the proper parameters
such as the mail server and the SMTP server.

Entourage creates an Identity. An Identity can have multiple email accounts.

Help setting up accounts can be found here:

See this page for help setting up your accounts.

I do highly suggest you set up a no spam account to use on the newsgroup.

For directions on creating your own fake 'nospam' account see:
