try this: in Outlook, create an account for Hotmail using "HTTP" as "type and "MSN" as the "HTTP Mail Service Provider". you won't need to use pop3 & smtp server names. this way you can import your Hotmail into Outlook. I did the same thing onlywith Outlook XP (2002)and it works fine.

I have always found outlook to be rather ...bothersome. What I'd suggest, whenever for some reason I have problems with hotmail.com, I run MSN Messenger and I can get into my inbox directly, and when you login even if you cant get into the inbox it will keep your account active, at the very least. MSN messenger can check hotmail or msn email. I believe you can aquire it at MSN.com or Download.com...Good luck
