    I'm using both Outlook Express 6.0 and Hotmail. Is there a way to set up Outlook Express so that it will receive messages sent to my Hotmail address? (I had been using IncrediMail. It has a one-click way to set it up for getting Hotmail stuff.)

    open OE.
    go to the menu ribbon, and click on Tools ... then Accounts.
    choose the mail tab at the top, click the add button, choose the mail option.

    The first screen will show you where to put in your address, when OE sees the @hotmail and you click the next button, it will give you a screen with the right defaults .
    type of server: http
    account: hotmail

    continue from there and you should be ok
