I also have a Gmail account. Actually I have about 6 or 7 email addresses,
including my work addy. I'm okay with things the way they are now. Four (or
is it five?) come thru OE, 2 extra Hotmail accounts plus my Gmail. And then
work email is done thru Exchange. EEK! That's NINE email addresses! But I'm
only one person...............no wonder I'm forever checking my email!
Gmail is a different critter. It came about after the Hotmail change and
have nothing to do with each other. I've been told that Gmail works fine
with OE but I use the Gmail Notifier and since I'm always online, it's fine
for me. If you can get Hotmail set up to forward everything to Gmail and
then accessed that thru OE, it should work. I just don't know how you could
set Hotmail up to forward automatically tho. Might be easier to start
notifying people about your new Gmail address. ;-)
