Hotmail Mail account setup.
 

Hi

I am unable to add another Hotmail account with my OE. I already have one
setup but for some reason, it won't accept my second account. I am setting
up the 2nd account exactly as I did the first account.

Do you know the reason? How to fix it? Doe OE only accept one Hotmail
account setup.

Thanks very much

Is it a paid account?

I would recommend against having more than one MSN Hotmail account set
up in any one MS Outlook Express Identity. The synchronization of the
two accounts gets out of whack, and you start seeing messages, and
folders, for one account listed in the other account. Use an additional
Identity for each additional Hotmail account.

The account I have setup currently in OE is not paid.... and I am able to
access it. So how does that work then? Any ideas?

I am happy using OE to access my hotmail. I don't have any probs with it at
all :))

Yes thanks, i have read your links.

The question is that I already have one hotmail account (which I don't pay
for) setup with OE. How can that be is you are suggesting that payment is
required?

As of Sept. 04, Hotmail stopped free access from OE. The exception to date
is if you already had a Hotmail account, you were *Grandfathered in*. That
is why you can still access it from your current account. However, to add
another account is the same as someone getting a Hotmail account for the
first time. You need Hotmail Plus to access your messages through Outlook
Express.
