Hotmail Account in Outlook couldn't work

[apple]

Hello ! I use outlook 2003 and also I want to check mail in hotmail .
So I go to Tools --> E-mail Accounts --> View or change existings
email accounts--> Add --> HTTP--> I type my Hotmail Account--> Click
Finish

It show hotmail Folder on my mail box but when I click at Inbox. I
don't see anything. I also go to Menu File --> Connect to Hotmail is
inactive command.

I'm not sure this problem is happend because of Exchange server or
not. I use Exchange server 2003

Thank you

Do you have Free Hotmail or have you signed up for Hotmail Plus? You cannot
download messages into Outlook if you have a free account - it is not
supported any longer. You have to upgrade to gain that feature.

I think it is about $20 a year. The hotmail site can provide additional
details about the costs/advantages as well as confirm the necessary account
settings.

Not true any more - upgrade to a (free) Hotmail Live account and use the
Outlook Connector beta. The only thing that will not synchronise is the
Hotmail calendar....
