I have several hotmail accounts that I read in OE.

Some accounts show in OE all the folders that I have in hotmail.com.

Some accounts do NOT show in OE all the folders that I have in hotmail.com.

How do I get ALL the hotmail.com folders to display (along with the contents
thereof) in OE?

Do not tell me to cancel these accounts and reopen them - I already did that
and THOSE are the accounts that fail to show all the hotmail.com folders in
OE - they DID show all the accounts prior to closing/reopening them!!

This problem applies to both the OS generated folders and MY generated
folder.

In general, I have found that having more than one Hotmail account in
any given MS Outlook Express Identity leads to problems. Often, messages
which should only be in the account folders for one of the accounts get
reduplicated in many, or all of the other account folders. The only work
around that I found to be effective is to limit myself to one MSN
Hotmail account per MS Outlook Express Identity.

Beyond that, your MSOE Hotmail folders only mirror what is available on
the Hotmail servers. You may need to tweak your Synchronization
settings, but I never had a problem with that. Any messages which you
want stored locally only, but not on the MSN servers, must be stored in
a folder under the Local Folders tree. Any time that you open MSOE
without logging in to the Hotmail servers you will only see what was on
the servers at the end of the last session.

This problem applies to both the OS generated folders and MY generated
folder.

This doesn't make any sense to me. I have never seen my OS (Windows ME)
generate any MSOE folders; unless I requested it. Perhaps you meant to
distinguish between the _Application_ generated folders and those you
created? With Hotmail accounts, there are three sources of folder
creation:

1.) MS Outlook Express creates five local folders:
a.) Inbox
b.) Outbox
c.) Sent Items
d.) Deleted Items
e.) Drafts

2.) MSN Hotmail creates four folders; at least as shown in my account:
a.) Inbox
b.) Sent Items
c.) Deleted Items
d.) Bulk Mail

3.) Any other folders than those are user-created folders.

I am using XP home with IE/OE 6.0.

I actually have six hotmail accounts that I read via OE

I have NEVER had any mail from one hotmail account get into some other
hotmail account when accessed via OE. In other words, hotmail account A and
hotmail account B, when viewed in OE the mail appears in the correct A=A,
B=B accounts.

Beyond that, your MSOE Hotmail folders only mirror what is available on
the Hotmail servers. You may need to tweak your Synchronization
settings, but I never had a problem with that.

How do I do that to make the folder appear - synchronization settings just
lists the folders that are in the folder list and the folder is not in the
list - see below. (Said folder IS on the hotmail server.)

Any messages which you
want stored locally only, but not on the MSN servers, must be stored in
a folder under the Local Folders tree. Any time that you open MSOE
without logging in to the Hotmail servers you will only see what was on
the servers at the end of the last session.

folder.

c.) Sent Items
d.) Deleted Items
e.) Drafts

2.) MSN Hotmail creates four folders; at least as shown in my account:
a.) Inbox
b.) Sent Items
c.) Deleted Items
d.) Bulk Mail


Exactly - my question actually regards the hotmail folder called bulk mail -
where is THAT folder in the MSOE list? (It IS on the hotmail server.)

Some of my account display that folder in MSOE others do not WHY? And how do
I make it appear in all OE accounts as I want to inspect the contents to
make sure no 'good' mail has gotten into that folder.

3.) Any other folders than those are user-created folders.


Those folders seem to be in both hotmail and OE lists.

By default, all folders visible at www.hotmail.com should display in OE. That being said, not everyone is able to run/access multiple MSN/Hotmail accounts in OE.

Try this:

IE Tools Internet Options Privacy Sites type in

hotmail.com
live.com
passport.net

and Allow Cookies for each, in turn.

If running IE7 Beta3, another fix may be required.

I did the below - now when are the missing folders supposed to appear?

I closed all IE and OE windows and reopened OE and clicked on send/receive -
mail was downloaded. Missing folders are still missing.

Running IE/OE 6.0.

In oe on the accounts where the bulk mail folders appear, when I click
synchronize, the list of folders appears in a window and mail is read into
them - on the accounts where the folders are missing, when I click on
synchronize NOTHING HAPPENS! why?

When I clicked on the link I got:

"Sorry, the page you requested is not available.

The page you were looking for is currently not available. The address may
not be correct,"

And anyway, MSN won't help me as OE was installed as an OEM version.

My OEM probably won't know what to do either.

That is the reason for asking HERE.

Did that - hotmail.com said since my OE was OEM, I should contact mfg.

Still stuck in neutral.
