When i delete hotmail message via web, windows mail does not delet


Hello Everyone,

When i use my hotmail account directly through
the web, and i delete a message, that message is not deleted on the windows
mail client when I Sync.

Also, if i use one mail client on another computer, delete a message, it is
not deleted on my windows mail client.

What do i do to synchronize properly.

Would all of this work better on Gmail?

Is there a way to get IMAP back on my hotmail ... it was so good with
outlook express and now things suck!

Thanks
Tushar

If you are using Pop3, no sync occurs..
What server are you using in your email client(you stated Windows Mail, not Windows Live Mail) ?
- Windows Mail only supports Pop3 for Hotmail
- Windows Live Mail supports Pop3 and Http for Hotmail

Which one are you using ? WM or WLM

Hotmail never used IMAP. Ever. Windows Mail can only access Hotmail using
POP3. To use HTTPMail, a similar type of access as IMAP, you need a
DeltaSync capable client. Such as: Windows Live Mail.
