I have a friend who is getting nervous about his hotmail archives. Can anybody post simple instructions for him to move his saved mails to disc?
Thanks, I know how to do Outlook Express but doubt they are the same.

he can set up hotmail as an account, then move the emails into an Outlook folder.

2. I didn't think you could use Outlook for Hotmail |
|
At least not easily - I know I messed a bunch of things up trying to get my husbands hotmail to go through OE.

3. Maybe it was the version of OE |
|
I remember it being a piece of cake. Just create a new http mail account and follow the wizard.

4. Not with a free account anymore... |
|
You have to pay for it now, they are disabling that feature for free accounts, though I don't know the exact timeframe, it already happened to me, when I tried to setup an account through OE a few months ago.

5. Can I kick this back up? |
|
Surely there is some way to transfer stored mail? Also is anybody here having problems with hotmail?

6. This is how you could do it ... |
|
From what people are saying, I don't know if this continues to work with the free accounts. http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=242&topic_id=1448#1460If this still works and if these are archived messages, you *might* have to moved them into the INBOX folder and mark them as unread to get them downloaded.
