I do have a "normal" POP3 account - my Hotmail account has been running for 12 years though - I use it as a "disposable" account for spam inducing contacts - my previous email program "Outlook 2003" could cope with Hotmail as well as my normal POP3 account and I was just wondering if there was an add on to run Hotmail

Can any of the alternative email programs run both together ?

When I used Hotmail (before the spam e-mails became too frequent) I used Outlook and the settings were something like HTTP something; presumably because it was web based? None of this SMTP or POP etc, but then things may have changed.

Get Gmail. Much better, much more storage and no spam at all !

Hotmail is primarily a web based email service.

To get emails onto Outlook, you need a POP or POP3 or similar feature for your email service. You might be able to manage if you could forward your hotmail messages to an email account with these features. Decent email services come with both POP access and web page access.

Has anyone got any ideas how to receive Hotmail on Outlook 2000 - using an add-on ?
