Check Hotmail / Live email accounts with Outlook
Posted by RizDec 14
I have lots of personal and official email addresses like many others. Few Email accounts are on Hotmail/MSN and Gmail while others are POP accounts.
Checking all emails becomes easier with outlook 2007, but the only problem for me was free hotmail accounts which were not working in outlook ( perhaps this needs some sort of subscription? ).
Today I found Outlook Connector beta version. I downloaded it from following location
http://download.microsoft.com/download/d/b/7/db7ab950-5db1-47c7-a9c5-b6d40fb95c6c/OutlookConnector.exe
After installation it has added some functionality in Outlook 2007 and now I am very glad to see that my free hotmail email accounts are now working in Outlook 2007. That’s great .. I am very pleased as this will save me lots of time to open browser windows and check every email several times a day.
This works in Outlook 2003 and outlook 2000 aswell. I am sure many people, like me, will be looking for this plugin too. So just download and save your time.
Note: Outlook Connector beta may expire and stop working in near future. In this case, you can use Windows Live Mail desktop client to check hotmail and live.com email account. It also support IMAP and POP email addresses.
