Outlook and Hotmail

I

Isabel

I've been trying to set Outlook 2000 or Outlook Express
6.0 to retrieve emails and manage contacts. Do not like
MSN's Hotmail interface.

I read that this is not possible in Outlook 2000. When I
try to retrieve/send emails in OUtlook Express, I receive
the following message: "Unable to poll for new messages on
your HTTP server. Account: 'Hotmail (1)',
Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp'
, Protocol: HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Service
Unavailable', Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number:
0x800CCCF0"

The mail server URL is
http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp

My DSL provider is Qwest.
My O.S. is WIN98SE.

I spent way to much time on this one.
Thanks in advance for your help... any!

Hi Isabel
I dont know why you are getting that error on Outlook
Express, perhaps someone on the Outlook Express newsgroup
might be able to help, you can set up a web favorites
folder and then point that at hotmail, perhaps that might
work, not sure if you will get the same error or not
though.

Regards
Davidt
