I recently went to Windows XP from Windows 98.  On my old computer, my MSN Messenger received emails directed for my Hotmail account.  That was the only account set up.  Using Windows XP, it seems that Hotmail cannot be set up.  Is this true or am I missing something?

I keep getting directed to Outlook or Outlook Express, and a message comes up saying that I must subscribe to Hotmail in order to set my account up through these. 

Does somebody know something I don't know that could help me???  HELP!  Please!!

Much appreciated!

So when you click your inbox in MSN Messenger you are being directed to your outlook? This is mostly the case when you are doing Windows messenger. If u use MSN Messenger: are you sure you sign in using a hotmail adress? and if you do, can you access your mails trough internet? If you can, i wouldn't know why you cant access your mails that way
