No, it's not web based mail. Windows Live Hotmail is web based mail.
Windows Live Mail with an HTTP account for Hotmail is analogous to POP3 or
IMAP in that you download the mail to your computer. It's just like using
Hotmail as you did in Windows XP.

Thanks guys, but it's still web-based e-mail, not
on our
Hard Drive. I am a security freak I guess.
Can I go back to OE 6 on Vista if I want?
(I know, Pa Bear, it's suppose to be in Vista but
I trust your
answers rather than start another post).
Thanks

And by now it probably has a different name.

Bubey, if you need Hotmail access you will need
to upgrade
Windows Mail to Windows Live Hotmail:

Crossposted to Vista (Windows) Mail newsgroup.

Bubey, you need to post your questions to
microsoft.public.windows.vista.mail newsgroup
now that you're running
Vista. Vista doesn't have Outlook Express;
your mail client is now
Windows Mail. See
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pro...ails/mail.mspx

You cannot access Hotmail accounts in Windows
Mail.

Anyone know of a way to get Hotmail to work
with
Outlook Exp ?
Thanks
