Use Outlook Connector for downloading mails from Hotmail
August 17, 2007
As I just posted about Windows Live Hotmail providing 5 GB of storage space, I also had a question whether we would get a POP3 or SMTP access. While they do not offer POP3 access, Microsoft has released a free utility called “Microsoft Office Outlook Connector”.
This connector allows you to download emails from you free Windows Live Hotmail account to you mail client Outlook or Outlook Express. The connector also includes Junk Mail filter and powerful Rules Wizard of Outlook to help you auto-sort the incoming emails.
All you have to do is download the 3 MB Outlook Connector (downloading requires Windows Validation Check) and login with your Windows Live user id and password credentials.
Microsoft Office Outlook Connector version3, is out of beta with its final ver. released. With Outlook Connector, you can use Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2007 to access and manage your Windows Live Hotmail or Office Live Mail accounts, including e-mail messages and contacts for free! Calendar, tasks and notes can also be accessed and managed in Outlook for accounts with a paid subscription.
Outlook Connector enables you to use your Live Hotmail accounts within Outlook:
* Read and send your Office Live Mail/Windows Live Hotmail e-mail messages.
* Manage your Live Mail Contacts.
* Use advanced options for blocking junk e-mail messages.
* Manage multiple e-mail accounts in one place.With a paid subscription, Outlook Connector enables these additional features:
* Manage, share, and synchronize your Windows Live Calendar in Outlook.
* Access your Tasks and Notes.
