Default Outlook 2007 spam filter with hotmail contacts

I have managed to get hotmail workiing with Outllok 2007 Pro, including
syncronising e-maill addresses.

However, although the "Junk e-mail options" allows me to select "also trust
e-mail from my Contacts", Outlook does not seem to recognise the hotmail
contacts folder as contacts.

Please advise what I need to do to tell Outlook to use my hotmail contacts
folder as the contact folder.

Many thanks
Andrew

Unless you are paying for Hotmail Premium and using Outlook Live, you won't
be able to do that.

Default Outlook 2007 spam filter with hotmail contacts

I have "an old" hotmail accout, and Outlook has synced contacts from hotmail.
Hotmail contacts appears in Outlook contacts as in a hotmail contacts folder.

How do I configure outlook to use this hotmail contact folder as the default
outlook contact folder, so that the Junk Mail filter uses these e-mail
addresses as "authorised e-mail addresses"?

Can I also tell outlook to open my hotmail inbox folder by default, rather
than the ofline inbox folder, which is emprty?

Many thanks
Andrew

Possibly with the Outlook Connector beta, if you convert your old Hotmail to
a WIndows Live account.
