jedimasterk Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 Why can't I get Outlook Express to work with my Hotmail account. I have a @msn.com address. Did exactly what was stated in the Hotmail help section and it still doesn't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac_Bug Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 why you want your hotmail to work in OE is beyond me, I use it specificly as my spam/remote account. I get like 3 Klez mailed to me a day now plus I just got another sircam 6 hours ago. Do you really want to open them using OE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amoeba Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 All you have to do to have a Hotmail account work with MS OE is go under Tools > Accounts > New > Select Hotmail as type of mail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshUK Posted May 12, 2002 Share Posted May 12, 2002 To get your MSN.com account to work in Outlook Express then you need to configure OE at this website: http://supportservices.msn.com/us/oeconfig/ ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

altezza Veteran Posted May 13, 2002 Veteran Share Posted May 13, 2002 I rather go to hotmail website for checking email rather than mixing the hotmail inbox with my other inbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
