Re: Outlook and messenger

I have recently got a new PC and have loaded Office XP. I have set up outlook to send and receive from my main email account. I also have a hotmail account which I used to access from messenger by right clicking on it and selecting 'my email inbox' which would open the hotmail web page. Now when I select 'my email inbox' it opens outlook!? Messenger and outlook seem to be linked in some way as I cannot close messenger while outlook is still open. All I want to do is use messenger to acess my hotmail account and not to have it linked to outlook, any ideas how I can change this. Thanks.....

You would stand a better chance for an answer in an one of the Outlook groups on this server/site. If you access through a browser you will need to navigate you way through the "Community Newsgroups" menu on the left side, since the site uses frames.
