Outlook and Outlook Express and Hotmail

[Guest]

When I use Outlook or Outlook Express to download my mail from different
ISP's the body of the mail is always downloaded except for Hotmail. To get OE
to download the message from Hotmail I have to go into each message online
for it to
download the message. I have the "download headers and messages" ticked but
it will only download the headers unless I click on each message in turn on
line. If I have many messages then this is very annoying. Is there something
i can do to get OE to download the messages automatically from Hotmail?
Thanks

You need to set up another account in Outlook Express. View this article.
