Vista - Windows live desktop / hotmail junk mail folder

I recently upgraded to wlm desk top program to replace outlook. I have used
hotmail for years and kept the same address since 1999. Problem I have, is
when synching hotmail, I get messages from those in my safelist, but it does
not download my hotmail junk folder. I like to scan the junk folder because i
get mail from people not on my safelist. I have not been able to find any
setting that I can change to correct this. Any Ideas? Any help is appreciated.

Are you using pop to access Hotmail?
Setup http access.

You have two options for seeing all the folders that are present in the web interface(mail.live.com or hotmail.live.com both go to
the same place)
1. Windows Live Mail configure the account as an http account. It will use the DeltaSync server which is required for making all
web folders available locally
2. Use Outlook 2003/2007 with its supplemental add-in the Outlook Connectore(OLC). The OLC is capable of DeltaSync and will do the
same when used in Outlook.


Did you replace Outlook or Outlook Express ?
- there is a difference

Please tell us the server in use in WLM for your Hotmail account ?
- it appears you are using Pop3, but here's how to find out for certain.

Right click the email account in the left hand pane, scroll and click Properties, then click Server

For an Http access it will have one server shown
http://mail.services.live.com/DeltaS....0.0/sync.aspx

For Pop3 Access it will have two servers shown
pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com


If you wish to setup the account for Http access
Tools/Accounts/Add/Email/Next/
- enter your hotmail account full email address(e.g. username@xxxxxx or username@xxxxxx), then enter the remain information.
You will have to perform a sync to fully setup the account and build the http folder structure.

In addition to Winston's directions:
Do not remove the pop Hotmail account. If you remove the account, all of
the email will be removed from your computer.
Add an account with http access. You can click on the pop account,
properties, uncheck 'Include this account when sending and receiving'.
After you get the http account working, check the pop account to see if any
messages were downloaded to the pop account and removed from the Hotmail
server.
