Well,

I did a search ans found nothing i asked 2 people and they said no:( (tech geeks)!

I dont think they would allow it my self but i could be wrong but there are programs to let you transfer email to your new account when there sent.

You fill in you details its like POP3 but a program, i had one before but not now. Watch out! They might me fake just ot get you password,

I will look again anyway:)

Oh, the perils of webmail!

To avoid that problem in the future, you should look into getting an email account with POP3 or IMAP access, so that you can use it with email software (e.g. Thunderbird, Outlook) on your computer and actually download your mail.   You can still have web based access for times you are away from home.

Google's GMail offers free POP3 access.  Hotmail and Yahoo offer it for a fee.

You can't access MSN Hotmail using POP3 (eg: using Microsoft Office Outlook) unless you have a premium (paid) account, i'm afraid.

Unless you have a paid account?

You can access your account threw http (on Microsoft outlook) but only once and it will only download stuff in your inbox. (tested)

If your looking for a way to forward all you messages to another account use GetMail
or
have fun forwarding :P (the way i did it before i found GetMail)
