I created an HTTP mailbox (as opposed ot MAPI, IMAp, POP etc) and used
Microsofts built in HTTP for Hotmail. When setting up the account outlook
asks you where you want your incoming mail to be send to (in tools > emails
accounts > "Deliver new e-mail to the follwowing location" i have it set to
personal folders, this is where i want it to go to, or copy to or ANYTHING i
dont care i just need email to go here automatically.

I have tried....
Creating a rule - this does not work on HTTP mailboxes, its not even an
option it is dimmed out.

Writing VBA code as a MACRO - this is not possible either , "MAPI"

please help technology is killing me. do they exepect you to do this? I was
forced to by microsoft live one, and its useless?

Can't. Exchange and POP3 accounts are aggregated into the default
message store. Each HTTP account gets its own separate message store.
Each message store has its own file along with its own set of folder
hierarchy within that file. Rules do not work on HTTP accounts.
