Default How to prevent hotmail from syncing with (downloading to) Outlook Express

After I delete the emails in the local folder, it automatically
re-downloads them from Hotmail.

The problem is they are taking up too much space, and I ONLY want them
on hotmail.

I have "include this account when synchronizing) UN-checked, but it
still happens.

There is no way to prevent download syncs other than stop using it
altogether?

Once in awhile I like to backup my emails, by copying all of them to
hotmail using OE. I dont want to remove the account from OE because I
may not even be able to use it later on (MS wont let me use any newer
hotmail emails with OE), and because its inconvenient to keep adding
and removing the account.

In the account's properties uncheck the box to include the account on send
and receive.

My first post stated "I have "include this account when synchronizing)
UN-checked, but it still happens. "
