outllok connector

[Pedro CR]

what exactly is outlook connector (for the purpose of accessing msn
messenger contact list from within outlook) and how do I obtain it?
I'm only aware of the POP3 connector but that's for exchange ....

thanks in advance

outlook can't read the messenger contact list unless you use the outlook
connector or right click on a contact and add it to your contact list.

hi

all my imortant contacts are listed in msn messenger and I would like to
be able to access this list when I'm filling the "To"/BCC/CC field when
creating a new contact.
Outlook express has a feature that lists those ocntacts inside the
program
but for Outlook 2003 I don't know how to get it working.
In the emails I receive, outlook 2003 already correctly displays the
sender Messenger status.

thanks
pedro

Outlook Connector is the software plug-in used with Outlook Live. It is a
subscription service to synch your Outlook data with a Hotmail or MSN
account. It's pretty damn cool if you have a laptop and a home pc and want
to keep the data synchronized automatically without having to "synchronize"
with 3rd party software.
