Hi Andrew,
Here are the instructions I got from this same list a little while ago.
It works.
Ok, if you don't have an account when you start up outlook express it
will open up a wizard, the first page will ask for your name. If you
already have an email account set up in outlook express, go to the tools
menu choose accounts, tab to the mail tab, tab to add button, press
space and select mail. It will bring up the wizard I talk about below.
When you tab to next it will ask for your email address.Upon entering
your hotmail email e.g. fred@xxxxxxxxxxx and then tab to and go to next
it will say my incoming mail server is a: and a combo box will be
selected to HTTP, leave that be, it is correct, infact all settings are
right on this page, or should be. The rest of the settings are: My HTTP
mail service provider is: then a combo box will say Hotmail. Then next
one reads: Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP or HTTP)
server: This box has a url in it and is grayed out, so it is
untouchable. The final setting on this page is: AN SMTP server is the
server that is used for your outgoing email, it and the box below it are
grayed out so go to next. The next page is about logging on, make sure
it has your whole email address in the account name filed and if you
want to remember your password, put it in and make sure remember
password is checked. Leave the Log on using secure password
authentication (SPA) unchecked and go to next. The last is the finish
page, click finish and you are done.
Ciao,
Ron.
