Web Mail & Windows Mail

[Tristan-117]

My Vista PC came with the new version of outlook express: Windows Mail. Yesthis is included in every Vista PC. I think it's great. However yesterday when I go to put in my hotmail account I find out that it doesn't support Web-Based Mail!!!!

This is very annoying for me.

So I installed office 2002 (Office XP). Now I want to use Microsoft Outlook to take control of my hotmail account. You no how you can click on inbox in Outlook and it shows you all of your emails? Well that way, so I don't have to hop online every time I want to ncheck my emails!

But will this work? After I do this can I still log on to live messenger and chat with my friends? Will I be able to do this?

I have my Hotmail account set up without problems but I'm using Windows Live Mail not the basic Windows Mail.
I don't see how it should be a problem though how are you trying to set it up ?

yes. I want to use Microsoft Office Outlook 2002. Because I love Outlook. However I just want to be sure that there won't be any problems and I will still be able to use my hotmail account for live messaging
