Outlook 2003 and Hotmail

[Guest]

It's always the simplest things that are the hardest to find. I'm trying to set up my daughters Outlook 2003 to automatically download her email from Hotmail. She's trying to avoid the 10 MB limit, and still keep those many, many emails on her hard drive. Please, anyone, point me in the right direction.
Thanks

You'll need to set up a HTTP account - and she'll need to move messages to
her Personal Folders store to stay under the 10 meg limit. MSN premium now
supports POP3, but free accounts do not.

it really sad, i can use outlook express to get into Hotmail it do work!! but
can't use Outlook 2003 sounds more like crap to me then saying you can't get
into free account at all when Express outlook can get the free hotmail.com
e-mail accounts uploaded without any errors at all.

ref; "supports POP3, but free accounts do not". sorry this is a lie you can
use "express outlook" to get it.

only outlook 2003 is not complet software if it was you can use hotmail. ask
me the techs were to lazy to get it working right for MSN-hotmail accounts

the tech were lazy on making MS-Office Outlook 2003 bottom line. the program
can't even import e-mail account from express outlook at all.

If the hotmail account works in OE, then something else is wrong. What error
messages do you get?

Diane,

You're way too nice helping someone that accuses you of being a liar.

Sheesh.

I read somewhere - cannot recall where - that this problem is an issue with
OE 6 and Windows XP SP2 (done on purpose), although within the next few
months it will begin to effect all versions of Windows (eg, you won't be
able to use OE to check a free Hotmail account).

I use a neat little for Yahoo called YahooPOPS -
http://yahoopops.sourceforge.net/. Is there a similar tool (which
essentially emulates a POP server for a webmail account) for Hotmail?

Mike

If the hotmail account works in OE, then something else is wrong. What
error messages do you get?

I found a couple tools for getting Hotmail through a POP client. Here's
one:
http://www.boolean.ca/hotpop/

It's not free ($17.50), but probably less expensive than subscribing to MSN.

1.) Express outlook working 100% with hotmail.
2.) MS-Office outlook 2003 crash as soon as i try to open e-mail from hotmail:
Link error report what there to see:
http://bb.domaindlx.com/ADFP/SS/error_outlook2003.jpg

for the details Mircosoft has the full detail on the error. but they have
not done no then about it. start thinking the don't care at all about their
products.

maybe one hand don't know what the other hand is doing.

with outlook express i can get my e-mail and read them all without error
only it not a smart thing to do when you have outlook 2003 better option to
use and hotmail is not blocking outlook express at all. with free hotmail
account.

sorry Diane for bashing you but it sound backward to me when one work and
the other don't work 100% at all on a free account

Click on the link to see what data it contains - we need to know which
module is causing it. (You can also look in Event viewer for the error -
click the copy button to get the text of the error.)

Two files often cause problems - outcmd.dat and *.srs found in C:\Documents
and Settings\username\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook. You can easily
access it by pasting %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook in the
Address bar of your browser or Windows Explorer.

Rename outcmd.dat to outcmd.dat_ and delete the *.srs files. If neither
helps, we'll need to see the error text.

My hotmail access through outlook 2003 just stopped last week with the
standard error message. No warning, nothing. It had been working and
importing Hotmail email fine until that point. So much for the late
spring 2005 closure. Information on my office 2003 packaging says
Outlook can import Hotmail. The Office 2003 website setup info says
Outlook can import hotmail (free accounts)
I work on the computer, not in the computer field - so I had no
warning (i.e. September press releases) that this was going to occur.
Messages from MSN, Expedia and microsoft partners that are designed to
bypass the junk mail folder still came in right up to closure day, but
no notice of the impending shutdown. So my remaining hotmail messages
are "lost" in limbo, my contact email list is non-transferable to
Outlook (I did try MSN Intellisync). I've been sending the messages
to another email address to 'recover' them, but now the headers
(to/from) are all #$*^&% up.
There is some helpful info here that I was able to glean, but i'm
afraid that the 'hotpop' listed below will not work either (see notice
posted on their website). Question (finally) is there any
confirmation from others that HHTPMP 1.3 will work? to be able to
justify the cost of the program?
I don't need extra storage, so the hotmail 'lockout' would appear to
be straight up extorsion. I've written my contacts, communiques,
newsletters, to advise them of my change in email address if they
wished to remain in contact. And to notify anyone they know with a
Hotmail account to expect it to close shortly on them at any time.

sorry for the rant, but I've been trying to get resolutions for this
problem, while trying to accomplish my regular daily tasks. So it
took me a week to finally end up here (I though it was just me they
(MS) were picking on).
