As a long time user of Hotmail I have been grandfathered to continue access
through Outlook Express, which I assume also applies to Outlook. I have no
problem accesing Hotmail with Outlook Express but receive errors when I try
to configure Outlook 2000 for receiving Hotmail. Can someone please help me
with the correct settings or plug-in to resolve this problem?
 
Outlook 2000 doesn't support HTTP accounts. You'll need Outlook 2002/XP or
2003

Thanks much, I guess I'll have to load Outlook XP.

Thanks much Peter, after failing to get the result I was seeking through
slipsick.com, I decided to load Outlook from my Office XP (2002) disk which
did the trick.
