Re: Can I use MS Outlook for the new Hotmail account?

The decision to deprecate the WebDAV server in lieu of the DeltaSync server was delayed.
If your account functions in OE it will continue to do so until further notice(email, web post etc).

Here's the notice concerning the WebDAV delay
http://emailsupport.spaces.live.com/...708!5745.entry

If you've Outlook 03 or 07 , the add-on Outlook Connector will also function for free and also grandfathered Hotmail
accounts(currently with the WebDAV and later with the DeltaSync).
- note a fee-based Hotmail account(Hotmail Plus) is required to sync with calendar, notes, and tasks.
