Hello again,
These steps have been clear to me, but nevertheless, I continue
experiencing that problem. However, as I said, it is not happening
in my office computer but only in the personal one. Any guess of what the
problem could be in my case?
Also, I would appreciate if anyone could tell me why am I recently having
the problem of sending a document as an attachment from my
office computer. For instance, if I have just translated a Word document
and if I want to send it as attachment, I get a message
somehow like 'no profile has been created for Microsoft Outlook...'.
Thanks again.
Gezim

Jim,
Sure thing. Here are step-by-step instructions. As long as your hotmail
account was established prior to the policy change (I
think it occurred about 3 years ago) you should be able to access your
hotmail account through Outlook Express.
Setting up Outlook Express for HotMail
1. Go to the tools <alt + t> and then to accounts.
2) You will be presented with a list view of all internet accounts
presently in Outlook Express. <Tab> to the "add" button.
3. Do not press <enter> on the button as you would in other
applications.
Hitting <enter> on this button simply closes the dialog
box. Instead press the space bar on the add button.
4. This will then bring up a list of options to choose from. Choose
the
first highlighted option "mail" and press <enter>. This will start the
internet account wizard.
5. You are first asked for the display name for the account. You can
put
anything in this edit box you want. But keep in mind that this name
will
appear in the inboxes of anyone who receives mail from you. After you
have
entered a name, <tab> to the "next" button and press <enter>.
6. The next step is to add your email address for the new account. If
you
already have a Hotmail account, leave the default check box checked and
then
tab to the edit field below. This is where you will enter your Hotmail
email account. For example, I would enter "
debbiescales@xxxxxxxxxxx".
After you have
entered the address info, <tab> to the "next" button and press <enter>.
7. You will now be asked for your incoming mail server. In the case of
Hotmail the choice is "http". this is the default setting. Then tab to
the
http mail server combo box. The default is Hotmail so you do not need
to
change this either. If you do want to change this, the only other
choice
is
"other" and I have not used that either. After you have completed
entering
the information requested, <tab> to the "next" button and press <enter>.
8. Now you will be presented with the account name and password dialog.
The account name is the first part of your Hotmail email address and is
usually already filled in for you. for example, my account name is
"debbiescales". After filling in the account name field, <tab> to the
password
field and enter your Hotmail account password. there is also a checkbox
which will allow Outlook to remember your password. The check box is
checked by default. If you do not want Outlook to remember your
password,
uncheck the box. Keep in mind that this will cause Outlook to ask you
for
your password every time you initially try to receive your Hotmail.
After
you enter it the first time, you will not be asked for it again while
Outlook Express is running. Once you have decided that you do or do not
want the password stored, <tab> to the "secure password authentication"
check box. This box is unchecked by default and I have left it that
way.
You can change it to checked if you want. Then <tab> to the "next"
button
and press <enter>.
9. At last! you are done! if you have successfully entered all
necessary
info, then hit <enter> on the "finish" button and your Hotmail account
is
now ready to use.
Now there are a few other things you can do to use your account. first,
make sure the hotmail account is highlighted by using the up and down
arrow
keys until it is highlighted. Once there, <tab> to the "properties"
button
and press <enter>. This brings up the properties dialog box and
contains
fields for display name, email address, reply address and a few other
fields. You may want to fill in the "reply address" field with your
Hotmail
email address. Then you may want to check the "include this account
for
receiving and synchronizing" check box. This will allow your Hotmail
account to be included every time Outlook checks for new mail. After
you
have finished here, <tab> to the "ok" button and press <enter>. Then
you
can clear the accounts list by typing <alt + F4> or <escape>.
