Viewing Your MSN Hotmail Account From Outlook Express

Published by

Being a 56k user I kind of got fed up of picking up web based email, because getting anything on my connection took ages. I wondered if I could pick up locally, so I set up my hotmail access details in MS Outlook Express. To my personal suprise it actually worked. Here is one of the messages I got. MSN Hotmail provides account access to Outlook Express customers as a beta service, which means support from MSN Hotmail for Outlook Express is extremely limited. To receive quick tips & more information on accessing MSN Hotmail via Outlook Express, please send a blank email to hmoex@hotmail.com. You will receive an automated reply within 5 minutes or less. I guess most people would already know about this or if possible don't bother with web based email, but I thought this tip was still worth mentioning.
