Outlook Connector and Office Live Essential - was OC and Live Mail Plus
Once again back, with contrasting news.
If HTTP is selected as protocol to sync my Office Live Essential Account,
when I start to sync, I'm requested to install Outlook Connector.....
And I'm back to the beginning....
No sync at all....
Ok.
A good sleep's needed....

Ok....
I'm sorry.
Even Live Essential can't use Outlook Connector.
....as reported in Office Live Help pages
-----------------------
Access Microsoft Office Live Mail in Outlook
You also can access Microsoft Office Live Mail in Outlook. In Outlook, on
the Tools menu, click E-mail Accounts. A wizard will open that will guide
you through the steps to bring Microsoft Office Live Mail into Outlook. Be
sure to select HTTP for account type and Hotmail for HTTP Mail Service
Provider.
Note This feature is only available to Microsoft Office Live Essentials
subscription holders.
-----------------------
So, at the moment, I can confirm that no service works with Connector be
excepted for Hotmail Premium Accounts, if someone succeed to subscribe
them (in Italy surely not).
No Office Live solutions allow to sync calendars and Tasks, through
Connector.
Come on Micrsoft, hurry up!

Hello Diane,
I subscribed to a free trial of Office Live Essential, upgrading the
Basic Account I already owned.
Connector doesn't care it at all.
As with my Live Mail Plus, my Live Essential account correctly signs in
but can't synchronize mail and calendars cause are services "available
only to subscribers"...
Who are them? I'm starting to ask myself, watching out for ghosts ;-)
Ok. Jokes apart.
I did it the upgrade 20 minutes ago and probably is too soon to get all
MS Servers already set up.
Anyway, I think I'll have to downgrade even if my bloody connector would
start its dirty job.
Companies, here, use a lot the Italian version of Outlook, and Connector
doesn't work on other languages but English.
So, I'm too forward.
Is too soon, and the beta phase is the beta phase.
Even if I can see how great is a product and how revolutionary can be in
SMEs framework. So, I'm not able to stop testing and suggesting people to
follow this kind of new bible in Office Automation Management.
Ok.
I will keep the group informed about Live Essential and Connector
behavior.
Regards
