How to use your Hotmail account in Microsoft Outlook 2007

  • Artikel

Who doesn't like things for free? Recently, after upgrading to Office 2007, I found that I was no longer able to access my Hotmail account from my Microsoft Outlook 2007 client. I was getting error messages like the following...

That was sad, and I was in no mood to buy a subscription for this. After struggling for a little while, I found that thankfully there is something available from Microsoft for free, and it is called Microsoft Office Outlook Connector. With Microsoft Office Outlook Connector Beta, you can use Microsoft Office Outlook 2003 or Microsoft Office Outlook 2007 to access and manage your Microsoft Windows Live Hotmail or Microsoft Office Live Mail accounts, including e-mail messages and contacts for free!

I tried that plug-in and after installing it, the Outlook client shows the following menu... Also, the configuration was complete in less than a minute!!!!!!

    Honestly speaking, even I found it quite weird initially. I didn't realize what went wrong with my MS outlook. After looking around for a while, I came to know about this tool! Phew!!
