"Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Office Outlook could not

[JW]

Two Outlook mail folders (I only set up one account) "Personal Folders" with
nothing in them and "(e-mail address removed)" with numbers indicating the amount of
unread mail downloaded in each folder. When I try to open these folders I get
the message "Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Office Outlook could not
access the specified folder location." I have set my account to send the mail
to the "Personal Folders" but it still sends it to the other folders. If I go
to Hotmail.com and read my mail it changes the unread mail numbers in the
outlook folders.

What version of Outlook and what version of the Hotmail Connector are you
using?

Brian,

I am having the same problem... Unable to display the folder. Microsoft Office Outlook could not access the specified folder location.

I am running Windows XP.

I use Outlook 2003.

I can not view my Hotmail account through Outlook.

I did uninstall and reinstall the account and I am using Outlook Connector.

This worked yesterday and does not work today.

Thanks!

Bob
