That might depend on the type of email account you have, eg pop / Hotmail
/Gmail etc

Thanks for your reply. I got it set up using a hotmail acct, but now I get
thiserror message when I try to send. wtf?

Task 'Hotmail: Folder:Inbox Synchronizing headers.' reported error
(0x800CCC33) : 'Access to the account was denied. Verify that your username
and password are correct.The server responded 'Forbidden'. '

I've fiddled with the UN & PW to no avail. Can you give any insight?

Thanks

You would need to use the Outlook Connector to use a hotmail account

You are attempting to define an HTTP/WebDAV account in Outlook for Hotmail
access. Hotmail doesn't have DAV access anymore. What you neglected to
mention is that the problem is for a NEW setup, not for an old account that
was working and then failed to work anymore or that you haven't accessed
your Hotmail account for over 4 months (which meant it expired because you
left it idle too long and, at best, you'll need to use the webmail interface
to see if it still lets you login before Microsoft terminates and deletes
the inactive account).

Cutoff for DAV access to Hotmail ended on September 1, 2009. Microsoft
switched to Deltasync as their HTTP communications protocol to their webmail
service. E-mail clients that support only DAV for HTTP access will no
longer be able to use it to access Hotmail. Your choices after the cutoff
a

- Use POP to access your Hotmail account.
- Use a Deltasync-enabled client to see all the folders in your webmail
account for IMAP-like access.
- Use the webmail interface that has always been there even before
Microsoft bought Hotmail.

Also see http://www.howto-outlook.com/news/ho...sforbidden.htm

POP has no concept of folders. It only understands a mailbox where ALL your
e-mails reside. Because POP doesn't use folders, there are no commands
within the Post Office Protocol to navigate or select folders. It only has
access to your mailbox. The mailbox that POP can access is the Inbox folder
you see when using the webmail client to your account.

http://communication.howstuffworks.com/email.htm
http://email.about.com/cs/standards/a/pop_basics.htm
http://email.about.com/cs/standards/a/how_pop_works.htm

Hotmail has never had and still doesn't have IMAP access. IMAP lets you
access other folders in your e-mail account (or, more accurately, those
folders to which you have subscribed). Microsoft has hinted that they may
make IMAP access possible in the future but no Hotmail user is going to pend
using their account until if and whenever IMAP access shows up.

The only way to have local access to the non-Inbox folders in your Hotmail
account is to use Deltasync (DAV support died on 01-SEP-2009). This
protocol makes available all your folders that you defined using either the
Deltasync-enabled e-mail client (which then replicates that local folder on
the server) or syncs to those folders you created using the webmail client.
If you want IMAP-like access to your Hotmail account, you'll need to use
either the webmail client or a local e-mail client that supports Deltasync,
which a

- Windows Live Mail (replaces Outlook Express and Vista's Windows Mail).
- Outlook 2003/2007 *plus* the Outlook Connector add-on. The add-on
adds Deltasync support since no version of Outlook natively supports
Deltasync. The add-on doesn't work with prior versions of Outlook.
- Use a screen-scraper proxy or e-mail client that tries to navigate the
web pages for the webmail client to Hotmail.

Outlook Express NEVER had support for Deltasync. It is a dead product:
functional development ceased back in 2002, a patch for SP-2 in Windows XP
allowed moving the default location of signature and quoted content, and
security patches ended in 2006 when the development team got disbanded. It
does have DAV support but Microsoft is discontinuing DAV access to their
mail hosts on Sept 1, 2009, and moving to Deltasync. There will be no
changes to OE to add Deltasync support to it. That means you can use OE for
POP access to your Hotmail account but not for Deltasync access (that would
give you access to the other webmail folders).

There are some screen scraper proxies or clients that will try to navigate
the web pages that makeup the webmail interface for Hotmail. That is, they
are coded to walk through the Hotmail web site. They act like a local
POP-to-HTTP proxy. You configure a POP account in your e-mail client that
connects to this protocol converter proxy that then uses HTTP to walk
through the Hotmail web site. They aren't reliable. FreePOPs, YahooPOPs
(for use with Yahoo Mail only), and Thunderbird with its Webmail proxy are
such types of screen-scraper clients. If the webmail interface changes then
these screen-scraper clients will fail. You cannot get your e-mails using
them until their author gets around to making their web-walking code match
the changes to the web site. Since they provide POP access through their
converter proxy, you only get access to your mailbox (which is the Inbox
folder shown in the webmail client). Since you use POP to connect to the
protocol converter proxy, you won't get IMAP or Deltasync access to the
other folders available in the webmail client. Since Hotmail, even for free
accounts, has POP access, there is no point in using a screen scraper to
access Hotmail.

thanks for your help. I downloaded connector & put my email add, Pw & name
in it. I am still getting the same error.

All I'm trying to do is respond to a craigslist posting & it has turned into
an all day project.

When I click the link in the posting a word window opens which is set up
like an email window. I click send & still get that error message.

I don't understand what's happening.

Thanks for your help

But are you also sending via it?
If you have multiple accounts configured, either set the Outlook Connector
account as the default in your Account Settings or use the Accounts button
near the Send button to select the account upon sending a new message.

And, as yet, you never mention actually using the webmail interface to
Hotmail to see if you can login to your account.

Also, although you installed the Outlook Connector add-on, did you also
*delete* the old Hotmail account where you tried using HTTP/WebDAV? You
need to delete all your old DAV accounts in Outlook for Hotmail. Then
create the new Hotmail account in Outlook using the add-on.

You NEVER want to post your real e-mail address in Craigslist. It is a well
known pool from which spammers will harvest e-mail addresses. You also do
not want to reply from your real e-mail account to any inquiries made
through or because of Craigslist ads. Create a new disposable e-mail
address (DEA) which could be at Hotmail and use that special-use account for
anything you do at Craigslist. When you are done with Craigslist, delete
the DEA account.
