Gary,
It was not, unlike the original notification(Subject: Outlook Express Service Change) distributed via email to WebDAV and other
account users. I received the original email notice in all http accounts and both legacy pop3 msn.com accounts.
Lori,
There were other options either via subscription(Hotmail Plus using Pop3 settings), MSn Explorer(at the time of the original
notice) no mention of a need to switch from MSn Ex to WLM which may indicate some type of upgrade is necessary or on the horizon,
and for those with Outlook 03 or 07 via using the current or future available Outlook Connector.
For free accounts that were grandfathered in 2004(as yours must be) switching to WLM instead of any other option may still prove to
be a good decision/requirement since WebDAV may still disappear at some 'announced' time in the future.
