Can access Hotmail via Outlook 2007

[David]

Hi... I have Outlook as part of Office 2007 and the email was working fine.
Over the last two weeks it has stopped with the error message suggesting the
Server has responded FORBIDDEN. My account settings for my email gives me a
choice of "Hotmail" "MSN" or other with the server address for the first two.
Has the hotmail server changed to "Live" and if so is there an easy upgrade
to Office Outlook to rectify the problem.

I thought I was on my own - I can't help, as yet, but I have 2 MSN email
accounts on Outlook 2007 and they both stopped working while I was on holiday
during the last 3 weeks. I have, however, been accessing my email using my
PDA as usual. Definitely an Outlook issue then.

I have the same problem, and am unpleasantly surprised that no one from msft
has posted a solution.
