Not without installing a piece of software like FreePOPs to run on your machine. See the following links for details and instructions:\n\nhttp://email.about.com/od/outlookexpresstips/qt/et061405.htm\nhttp://www.freepops.org/en/\n\nI'm fairly sure that with *free* hotmail accounts, you can't use Outlook Express's builtin HTTP access. I haven't tried in probably a year, though. The fee based hotmail accounts allow this access.

It is possible only with MS outlook but not outlook express

You can use different "identities".  Each Identity will have it's own inbox etc.\n\nOpen Outlook Express, go to File --> Identities --> Add New Identity.\n\nYou will need the address, Incoming, and Outgoing servers.  Basically all of the stuff you needed to set up your first account.

You won't be able to do this because Hot Mail is using is a server mail which doesn't allow someone to save information on its server.\n\n\nYou can do it  if you have e-mail account with POP3 or IMAP by using outlook express or other equivalent composing applications

If the administrator of a Microsoft Exchange server permits it, the Exchange server may offer a web based version of Outlook. This obviously is only a possibility if your Outlook uses Microsoft Exchange as a server.\n\nIf by this question you mean to ask if you can literally visit the installation of Outlook on your computer from somewhere else, you'd have to poke a hole through your personal firewall, and run something like VNC. I strongly recommend against this - you'd be opening your computer up for hijacking.\n\nIf you feel you have to do this anyway, get the VNC server and client tools: http://www.realvnc.com/\n\nMicrosoft is currently working on a project called "Kahuna" that will make Hotmail look a lot like Outlook.

No, but if you download a tiny piece of software called Freepops, it will tell you how to set it up to do that.  I get my yahoo and msn (hotmail) mail in my Thunderbird, and it's supposed to work with Outlook Express as well.\n\nThe directions for set up are on their website.

Start Outlook Express.\nGo to Tools -> Settings.\nOn the General tab there is a message: This application is not the default mailer; there is a button beside it: Default...\nClick on it!

Try this if you have "yahoo mail PLUS"\n\n1. Open up Outlook Express\n2. Click Tools at the top of your screen, then Accounts\n3. Click "Add" then "Mail"\n4. Follow the wizard\n5. When it comes to the "Email Server Names", "My Incoming mail server is" set it to POP3\n6. Incoming Mail as: pop.mail.yahoo.com\n7. Outgoing Mail as: smtp.mail.yahoo.com\n\n\nIf you have a normal Yahoo account it doesn't support POP3 and you can't check your emails in Outlook.
