Hi
I've had a bit of a laptop nightmare and have done a partition re-install. Everyting's OK now and I've re-installed most applications. I'm struggling to reconnect Outlook (2007) to the Hotmail server. I've tried all the settings I can find via google. No joy. I definitely have the right password as I can log into the web server.
Any help? (bit embarrassed because I used to do this stuff all the time but laptop has run well for a few years so haven't had to).
btw, I've got a very old hotmail account. I remember that hotmail kicked out pop3/http access for new accounts. Mine's pre-that. Was working fine yesterday. Thanks.
