There's no need to "convert" your account.
This group is for Windows Mail (not Live Mail).
Windows Mail cannot access http accounts. It can now access Hotmail
accounts using POP3, if you wish.
The newer Windows Live Mail can access your Hotmail account very easily.
Just enter your email address & password.
