Hotmail Account

[Guest_imported]

Is it possible to retrieve mail from your hotmail account in Outlook Express? If so, what do I set the server settings at and what do I put in as my user name and password?

Yes, but I think it has to be version 5 or above. Run the new mail account wizard and put your normal login details in for the name and password. The wizard fills in everything else (If my memory serves me well!).

the server is hotmail.com, and your user name and password are your hotmail name annd password. you have to run new user wizard (i think) and you can enter the rest from there. Cyprus

Hotmail will only work with version 5 and above of Outlook Express. Use this Knowledge Base article to configure OE to access your Hotmail account.
