Yes Mike and I refuse to use anything in combination with OE.
Why would I? It is no problem at all to log into each address seperately,
i.e. Gmail, Yahoo and hotmail for that matter.
I see it as a personal preference because those accounts remain, in case of
a crash, OE doesn't, unless precautions were taken.

I am trying to set my hotmail account in outlook express. When it
tries to
download folders this message appears:

"Payment Required

Configuration:
Account: Hotmail
Server: http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
User name:
Protocol: HTTPMail
Port: 0
Secure(SSL): 0
Code: 80004005"

It was working fine some eight months back .
And also account can be reached via hotmail site. Then

"Payment Required"? To whom? if its Microsoft, how much Bill Gates
need
more to make him richest # 2 also.

That change was announced months ago.
You can still use the web server for Hotmail free.
That's why I refuse to use Hotmail.
