Outlook 2007 spam filter with hotmail contacts
I have managed to get hotmail workiing with Outllok 2007 Pro, including
syncronising e-maill addresses. However, although the "Junk e-mail options" allows me to select "also trust e-mail from my Contacts", Outlook does not seem to recognise the hotmail contacts folder as contacts. Please advise what I need to do to tell Outlook to use my hotmail contacts folder as the contact folder. Many thanks Andrew |

Unless you are paying for Hotmail Premium and using Outlook Live, you won't be able to do that. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

Outlook 2007 spam filter with hotmail contacts
I have "an old" hotmail accout, and Outlook has synced contacts from hotmail.
Hotmail contacts appears in Outlook contacts as in a hotmail contacts folder. How do I configure outlook to use this hotmail contact folder as the default outlook contact folder, so that the Junk Mail filter uses these e-mail addresses as "authorised e-mail addresses"? Can I also tell outlook to open my hotmail inbox folder by default, rather than the ofline inbox folder, which is emprty?

The conection does not seem to be an issue, I´m trying to find out how to

Yes, Connector installed and working - when I look at the Server Status, it
tells me that there is a coneection to Mail and Contacts, but not calender, which is as expected, as I have not paid for subscription.

What's the issue then? You sound like you have everything that's available with a non-premium account. With a non-premium account, your Hotmail folders can't be the default folders. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |

Outlook 2007 spam filter with hotmail contacts
Currently I can
- syncronise all e-mail and e-mail folders between hotmail and Outlook 2007 - acceess Hotmail contacts with Outlook 2007, although I thought this was only possible with a premium account. Outllok does not accept these hotmail contacts as "safe sender" for Junk mail filtering - hotmail calender is not available through Outlook, as expected Since I only managed to get the conector working on second instalation and the fact that no one has been able to confirm to me that I will be able to make the hotmail contacts folder list the default folders list, once the hotmal account is premium, I have not paid this subscription. Please can you confirm that I will be able to make the hotmail contacts folder the Outlook 2007 default contacts folder (which in turn will allow Outllok to recognise these email address for Junk e-mail filtering, and general contacts functionality).

Why not contact MSN and ask them? I looked at http://join.msn.com/premium/overview and I don't see mention of "Outlook Live" any more, as described he http://www.slipstick.com/outlook/mool.htm , but that page does describe downloading from http://g.msn.com/0CR1033/3 an Outlook Connector that's compatible with Outlook 2007. With the Outlook Connector, Outlook should work in a fashion similar to Outlook connected to an Exchange server and allow you to specify the MSN folders as your default folders. -- Brian Tillman [MVP-Outlook] |
