Microsoft Outlook with Hotmail

Rebellion88 · 12-17-2006, 03:06 AM

Just want to clear up this issue, as i tried and tried to fix it with no luck. I wanted all my emails from my hotmail account to go through Microsoft Outlook. Attempt after attempt to get it working it failed, i then stumbled across some information regarding this issue, which said the only way to make Outlook work with hotmail is to pay for a premium membership. But come on who wants to do that just to simply access it, all i could suggest is get the emails forwarded to a different webmail account.

I personally suggest Gmail from google as you gain a very large inbox space and in the options there is a guide to make it work via Outlook. Its a easy step by step guide which anyone could follow. If i'm wrong then please correct me, i just didn't want people wasting time like i did trying to make it work.

Dear Rebellion88
that's right you must pay to Microsoft to get a premium membership of the Hotmail community
Anyway i think there is a try you can use a credit card to pay them for a trial period untill you download all your e-mails locally then you send them asking to make a refund because you don't like the service then you can get your money back with your mails
after this you should start using GMail acconut
Thanks & BR
