Hello,
I am using Outlook Express 6.0 to read my Hotmail account. I would like to configure Outlook 2000 to read my Outlook Express mail.
Is there a way to configure MS-Outlook to read/send my mail from my Outlook Express account???

If there are examples or samples, PLEASE point them out to me...

Thank you,

Besides, why add the additional step? Just configure Outlook to be your default email program and leave Outlook Express behind in the dust. There are instructions on the Hotmail web site on how to configure Outlook to connect to your Hotmail account.
