Outlook has stopped communicating with my Hotmail service.
I have followed the instructions on the Hotmail help line
but all that did was get me a second Hotmail folder that
doesn't work either.
I am getting the message that Outlook is unable yto
connect to outgoing SMTP email server and told to contact
the server administrator or ISP.
Also I am told to check the port and SSL settings and have
done so but am unsure what they should be.

I use Optimumonline cable service and modem that worked
fine for the Outlook to Hotmail connection until this
weekend. I have had this problem since the blackout in
the Eastern US but am unsure whether that is coincidental
or causal.

How do I eliminate the second Hotmail Outlook
folder "Hotmail 1"?

How do I get Hotmail to connect with Outlook.

Thank You,

Norman
 
Norman,
I just installed Outlook (2000 not 2002)and do not know
how to access hotmail. Did you figure it out? Please
tell me how.
Thanks.
