Outlook problem

[S.C. Tokyo]

I keep getting this message when I try to access my outlook -- and it worked
perfectly well yesterday:


Task 'Hotmail: Folder:Inbox Synchronizing headers.' reported error
(0x800CCC33) : 'Access to the account was denied. Verify that your username
and password are correct.The server responded 'Forbidden'.

but user name and password haven't been changed.

Are you using the Outlook Connector to connect to your Live Hotmail account?
If not, you can download it here;

I have the same problem, it worked great until yesterday. However, I'm
running Outlook 2002, and the connector only works for 2003, so what should I
do?

The only thing you can do is to set hotmail up as a POP3 account.

I've tried that too, but am unable to send any messages.

You'll only be able to see the messages in your Inbox folder than. Another
option would be to use Windows Live Mail to access your Hotmail account.

Did you set up your hotmail account within Outlook Connector?

Did you set up your hotmail account within Outlook Connector?

I also have had the same problem. I downloaded the connector but when I
load Outlook, it does not prompt me to set up the account, nor is there a tab
which says Outlook connector to do this manually.

Doid you install the Connector after downloading it?
