outlook express not accessing hotmail

[lovable_zaets]

I setup Microsoft Outlook, that shipped with office xp and sp3, to og onto hotmail and view all the mail.

The hotmail account comes back with http://services.msn.com/svcv/hotmail/httpmail.asp is now in offline mode.

I then deleted that account and then synchronised all my account with outlook express and my isp account works and hotmail still does not.

The hotmail account works in express but not in outlook and I also checked the settings manually.

I want to use the planner and calender functions of Outlook and do not want Express to run for e-mails and Outlook for the scheduling, too confusing.

Please help.

The function you are looking for (http mail ) does not exist in Outlook (97, 2000 or 2002). You can only use Outlook Express or Outlook 2003 to bring you hotmail and ISP mail at the same time.
