I just installed the new Microsoft Outlook Connector beta (I'm using it with
Outlook 2007 and BCM)and have had a little success and a little failure.

It works with two of my Microsoft Office Live email accounts (the free ones)
and not with the third (which is also a free one).

I also have a MSN account ([email protected])that I've had for many years
and I thought that it definitely work with this one, and it does not.

Anyone have a clue how to get the third Office Live account working and most
also my trusty MSN account?

I should point out that I have also been using the Windows Live Mail Desktop
(beta) software until a downloaded the new Outlook Connector beta.

Any thoughts, ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Tom,
I know what issues your refering to and this quick and easy
test may fix your issue
be sure that any account you are trying to connect with has beeen
converted from the former MSN Hotmail to the new Live Hotmail. In
order to have the connector work right the you must log into the web
based account and upgrade to the Live Hotmail. I noticed the same
issue on one of my accounts. We tested this several times using
mutiple accounts and allways got the same issue.
 
Ron,

That was it!!! Thank you!!! After converting them all (accepting the
Microsoft "Live" agreement, and ** then ** removing the non-working accounts
from Outlook Connector and ** then ** adding them back to Outlook Connect
they then all worked perfectly.

Thanks for providing the big clue!
