Hello,

I'd like to use my @msn address with outlook. I know it's possible because I have already done it once, but don't remember how. In the default settings there is only an option for a @hotmail address.

thank you for your help

Are you paying for your MSN service? If you have a free MSN account or are
using MSN7 software you don't have a POP3 account. If you have a premium
account and use MSN9 software, you should be able to connect to the MSN POP
servers.

Also, which version of Outlook do you use?

I use outlook 2000 and I have a free MSN account. Maybe they have changed the rules, but I am sure it was possible before to use a msn address on outlook.

where can i find the "msn address book" ??
