Anyone else having this problem and have a solution?
Since Outlook Express was not suppose to work with Hotmail afer June whatever we switched over to Outlook 2007. Up until about 2 weeks ago this solution worked fine for me. Now every other day or so I have to deleted my hotmail account from Outlook and add it again because I get the error "folder are already created" when trying to send/receive from my hotmail account.
Anyone have a solution?
I would love to stay with Outlook because all of my email accounts are set up. I hate using the hotmail client online, it is super laggy for me and half the time doesn't load correctly.

Hi Sedel, I'm not using Hotmail but I've search and found out that Hotmail do not support POP3 mail client like Outlook, you must be using an application to download HM mail then send it to your out look. Maybe this site can explain it more: http://ask-leo.com/what_are_msn_hotmails_pop3_and_smtp_settings_for_outlook_express.html I wish I could help.

That is Outlook Express NOT Outlook. Hotmail DOES support outlook express. They were going to start not supporting it about a month ago, but changed their minds.

I don't use OE. I use outlook. I have tried live m,ail and it sucks. I have 2 accounts through Microsoft small business, one is for my own domain. That email account goes through live mail and it doesn't work. I had to download a program that Microsoft has to connect live mail to my outlook account. That is th eonly way I was able to read my mail.
