       Hotmail DAV access in OE was always a beta feature.  It is =
limited to a subset of accounts.  I think it always was and was further =
restricted a few years ago.  There is also a mechanism to access Hotmail =
accounts in Outlook via the Microsoft Office Outlook Connector.  The =
latter is what I use.  It too is limited to a subset of accounts.  I =

   WLMD I believe has the same export capabilities as Windows Mail which =
includes export to Outlook.

   If you just want to archive messages, with Windows Mail and Windows =
Live Mail Desktop you can just archive the EML and NWS files.  One of = the
changes from OE is to persist the messages as individual files = instead of
store the message bodies in a database.  I believe this was = easier for

  Thanks for link.

  So Windows Live Mail Desktop will access Hotmail.
  Do you know if it will export to Outlook (or if Outlook can import)?
  (I mean Microsoft Office Outlook, not Outlook Express.)

  I guess "no" because they need ads to pay for the service.

  I am in the habit of using Outlook Express to download mail from a =
Hotmail
  account. Then I import stuff I want to keep into Office Outlook.

  However, the ability for Outlook Express to access Hotmail seems to =
have
  disappeared from my home system (it worked before; now I get a
  "temporarily moved" error). But it still works on a system at work.
  Strange.
