That's the beauty of DeltaSync - the mechanism that synchronizes the
contents of the folders in your Hotmail account on the web with the
account folders in WLMail. Even though you remove the account from
WLMail, all your messages are safely stored in their folders on the
web (well, safely and safely...). To make sure, you could *copy*
messages you want to keep from your MSN account folders in WLMail to
folders that you create under Storage folders.
Then it's simply a question of right-clicking on the account name in
the Folder pane and selecting 'Remove account'. Restart WLMail, then
use the 'Add e-mail account' wizard at the foot of the folder pane
to put the account back again. Depending on the number of messages
in your Hotmail folders, it might take more than one synchronization
cycle to get the whole lot in sync again - if it works, that is. If
it doesn't, Support is your only option. Be sure to tell them that
you've tried removing and re-creating the account, otherwise that's
probably what they will suggest first off.
