Using MSN Account with Outlook 2003

Hola All,

Ultimate Goal - Set up MSN and Gmail accounts to work with Outlook 2003 so that incoming emails from both MSN and GMAIL go to the same inbox in Outlook 2003.

I have done a bunch of reading on the Internet and I think I need a Hotmail Plus\Windows Live Hotmail Plus which costs $19.95 annually if I want to accomplish my goal, right? My gmail account (main) is already set up and working fine.

Alternatively, I found Outlook Connector which allows me to download emails from my MSN account but the emails are stored in a separate personal folder in a separate inbox from my main email account. Is there a way to set up Outlook Connector so that emails from MSN come to the same inbox as my main email? I tried setting up a "rule" to check incoming messages and if they are from my msn account to move them to my main inbox but that did not work.

Thanks, Bill
