Gezim and Jill,
The problem you are having with accessing your hotmail accounts through
Outlook Express has nothing to do with your not paying for premium Hotmail
access.
As long as you had been using your hotmail account before Microsoft started
charging for Hotmail access via Outlook Express, you were grandfathered in, and
can still access your Hotmail account through your Outlook Express program for
free. I'm still doing it with no problem.
The problem you are having is caused by a setting in your Outlook Express. I
suspect that it is attempting to open both hotmail accounts, and is rejecting
the password you are giving it, because it is looking for the other password.
Regards,
Alan

I used to have a hotmail account set up through outlook express as well;
however, about 3 months ago or so, I had the same problem and when I went to
visit
hotmail's website I found out that you can no longer manage your hotmail
account through outlook express unless you subscribe to one of their email
plans.
I now only access my hotmail account through the website instead of managing
it with outlook express. This was frustrating to me of course because I
liked being able to manage all of my email accounts using outlook express.
You may have to switch email providers? Possibly Gmail?
Hope this helps,
Jill Kline

Subject: Outlook Express and Hotmail accounts
Hi List,
I appologize if this is an off topic issue, but in that case, I hope that
one of you will respond to me privately. I have two Hotmail accounts that I
have been using with Outlook Express, but recently a problem has occurred.
All the time I am prompted to enter my password for my account, and even after
I do so, I get the same prompt over and over. I have tried removing and
adding my Hotmail accounts several times, but that did not stop the problem.
This has been happening only with my personal computer, while I have been
experiencing another strange problem with my office computer, too. When I want
to send a document as attachment, I get a message, which approximately says
something like 'no profile has been created for MS Outlook'. In fact, I am
using Outlook Express here as well, so I find the message quite strange.
I am looking forward to your help.
Best regards,
Gezim
