The free accounts no longer get remote email access using an email client, you have to give them a monthly/yearly fee for this privilidge, it used to be free in times gone by. If someone can refute this definitely I'm sure it would be a pleasant surprise to many others. Regards.

However, when I choose Hotmail from the possible options under HTTP servers I think it is, I am not able to connect. I am assuming this is because Outlook defaults to hotmail.com for this option. There is an 'other' setting which I can use, but I need to know the URL for the hotmail.co.uk server. Can anyone help me with this?
