Instructions on adding Hotmail to Outlook
express
In your Outlook Express, press on "tools" in the
tool bar.
Go to "Accounts"
A window will pop up.....to the right you will see a button that says
"Add" click this and a sub-menu will show and select "mail"
Now, where it prompts you, fill in your name (this is what receivers of your
e-mail will see in the "from" line) then click "Next".
Now, the next window will have 2 choices. You want the selection that says
"I already have an email address I'd like to use", and there is a
space to fill in that e-mail address. This is where you fill in your Hotmail
address. Make sure that you include the @hotmail.com part of the address. Click
"next".
The next page will have all information filled out. Server will be a HTTP and
provider will be Hotmail.......Do not change anything in this window, click
"next"
On this page fill out your password where it says to. The name of the account
should already be filled out..it's just the name of the hotmail address. Click
on Next and you are all finished.
If you want to change the name that shows up in your folders, go to
"tools" ; "accounts"; highlight the new account and click
properties. Type in whichever name you would like.
