I know Hotmail.com is.

Not for the FREE accounts, and that is what the OP asked about. If you want
access to a Hotmail account from a WebDAV client, like Outlook or Outlook
Express, you must PAY for a Hotmail account. Obviously the user would not
be concernced about a free account that got grandfathered in before the
29-Nov-2004 policy change date.

Try Yahoo. There's a fairly clear account of how to set up a yahoo a/c
to be accessed thro' Outlook Express in "Options" once you access your
mail a/c.

"POP Access and Forwarding
Use Yahoo! as your permanent email address. Forward to another mail
account, or download your Yahoo! messages to your POP3 mail client."

True, the older Hotmail free accounts are still "compatible" with
Outlook/Outlook Express (I still have mine!) MS changed Hotmail's policy
because "spammers" were abusing the free accounts by setting one up and then
using it to spam people.

US & CA Yahoo accounts must pay for such access (legally-speaking).

Clarification: Even if OP has a longstanding Hotmail account, he wouldn't be
able to access it it OE or OL for free if he wasn't doing so on or before 24
Sept-04.

I don't use OE, but gmail.com offers pop3 access, so I assume it would work
with OE. 2GB of space and it's free.
