Greetings everyone!!
I just setup my account in Outlook Express for MSN.
Where you need to pay attention, is that your account login name must be
fully qualified eg. myname@xxxxxxxx If you leave out the @msn.com than
it won't connect to the server..
Here is what is on my tabs when I go edit the account.
General:
Mail account: MSN
User Information
Name: Craig Goodenough
Organization: I left it blank
E-mail address/Reply address: epimetheus27@xxxxxxx
Server
My Mail server is an HTTP server
Mail Server
Mail Server: http://oe.msn.msnmail.hotmail.com/cgi-bin/hmdata
Login name: epimetheus27@xxxxxxx
Paxxword:xxxxxxxxxl
That's about it
All of this is done automatically when you start the new account wizzard
in outlook express.
Cheers
Craig Goodenough
PS: The email server may be different for your location, so it may not
work if you use the one I specified.
