How do I configure Outlook with an https account?

I wish Outlook to be my default email programme, but to be able to retrieve
mail from my online MSN account using a broadband ISP, which has an https
address line.
 
Only certain types of paid MSN and Hotmail accounts can connect to Outlook
now. You will need to check with MSN to see if yours is one of the eligible
types.

Jocelyn,

I have now called MSN, who assure me that by using Outlook, I can retrieve
and send emails from my Hotmail Subscription Account using a Broadband ISP
(Wanadoo (https//).

My problem is that I'm unsure how to achieve that and so far, you're my best
bet.

Can you help further or would you know where to look?

Thanks again.

Harold
 
I'm not sure I understand the https part of the question. If you have a paid
hotmail/msn account, you either set up an HTTP account type or use MOOL.
Where does "Wanadoo (https//)" fit into the problem?

Diane,

I subscribe to MSN, but access my account online via wandoo.co.uk Broadband
ISP. I wish to receive and send MSN mail through Outlook without navigating
to my online account. MSN tell me I can do this, but not how.

Any ideas?

Harold
