For the past few years I've been using Outlook Express as my offline mail client...

For no other reason than its easy to setup, and is no hassle...

Although I had Outlook, and used a lot of its features at work, I've had no use for most of them at home... and it diddnt allow me to grab News Group messages...

However... since using B&W I've been wanting to get my mail through Outlook, so I can get my little worshipers named after people i nmy list (getting my Titan to throw ex-bosses around id no bad thing either! :) )

Problem is I cant get a valid hotmail account to work through Outlook... The closest reference I can find to using a Hotmail account in Oulook is on the Microsoft site,m where it telles me to put a link to the Hotmail login page on my task bar, and log in whenever I want to chek my mail...

This being only very slightly dodgy... I was wondering if anyone knkew a better way around this problem (apart from un-installing outlook)?

:)

I've only ever used Outlook Express, despite having a copy of outlook - it's just too confusing!

Is that just for SATs week, or your new attitude to life? Being a bit of an unsociable lil' sod on IRC too.

Come on later and help with promotion stuff.

Have to use it now 'cause I forgot about it when we got the new box, and I cant be bothered to import all my OE mailboxes. Still use it downstairs, and will do on the other new one.
