Re: how do I set up My Hotmail acct. in my MS Office Outlook acct?



I'm sticking with what I found on Microsoft's site and what I just
experienced last night. It could be that a UK Hotmail address is different
but it ain't happenin' here.

You can access free Hotmail accounts with OE? And you just did the set up

done.)

Under Notes, it says "Free MSN Hotmail accounts cannot be used with
Outlook.
"

Joann,I did mention that I had an older msn account,set up prior to the
change,as I was notified by Microsoft by e-mail that I would be able to
continue using my older hotmail account as

To make sure, I just set my system up to access another Hotmail account
that
I monitor and I got the following error message: "Access to Hotmail via
Outlook and Outlook Express now requires a subscription. Please sign up

What do you mean "The account HAS to have been set up prior to
September
2004". Only lastweek I set up my hotmail accounts on a new laptop.
they are all free accounts. Did I say somewhere "Your account needs to
be "old" to get this facility." are you saying US rules are different
from the UK? All my hotmail accounts are myname@xxxxxxxxxxxx i don't
like using dot co dot uk address because of extra typing involved.

Your account needs to be "old" to get this facility. I was
fortunate
to
have all my 7 accounts setup prior to MS decided to start charging
its
customers.

Alternatively, you could sign up with AIM/AOL and get access to the
account using Outlook/Outlook Express. You need to hurry up
otherwise
they too will start charging if demands exceeds beyond their
expectancy!

JoAnn,As I mentioned before that this hotmail account is an older account
that I was using with my Microsoft Office Outlook prior to the change.I
even mentioned that Microsoft had notified me prior to the change that I
would be able to continue using my Hotmail account with Outlook priorto
the change but I would not be able to open any other new Hotmail
accounts.All was working great,and I never closed my account,All I did
was reformat my PC and wanted to know the correct procedure for
configuring my old Hotmail account back into my Outlook.If any one has
this info,Thank you.
