If you just created the hotmail account (within the past 4+ years, I forget
when the grandfather clause kicks in), then you can't unless you pay for a
premium account.

Officially, yes, you need to get MSN Premium for $9.95 a month -

Unofficially,
http://email.about.com/od/windowswe..._to_Access_WebBased_Email_via_POP_or_IMAP.htm
lists some tools that will work with a free account. Your mileage may vary.

Hotmail Plus used to work as well, but reading the description of Hotmail
Plus, it appears they've removed the ability to use Outlook or Outlook
Express.

Yeah, that's the vibe I got too.

Not to mention that even if it did, MSN Premium is half the price of Hotmail
Plus. =)

Hotmail Plus is $19.95 per YEAR. Hotmail Premium (now MSN Premium) is $9.95
per MONTH.

Oh, and I meant to add, someone tells me that WebDAV is indeed included in
Hotmail Plus. I can't find any proof of that tho.

Microsoft is on the verge of rolling out a FREE Hotmail Connector. It will
be able to do email and contacts for your Hotmail from Outlook 2007 and 2003
(Calendar use will require MSN Premium). See this link for status on the
connector;
