email account types

[res0tm5t]

Got a question, I have three differnet email accounts and I was wondering if
I have them set right in Outlook 2007.
I have a .msn, .hotmail, and a email account created from bluehost.com which
hosts my website. for exaple my (e-mail address removed).

I get all of my emails from all three account just fine with Outlook. The
..msn and .hotmail are setup as MAPI and the other account is IMAP/SMTP. I was
wondering if these settings are right?

I rarely ever sign onto the net to check my mail. If I delete an email or
view an email via Outlook I want my servers to follow suite. I don't want to
check my mail with Outlook delete the email then have to log onto the net to
do the same. I want them to do whatever I do in Outlook . Make sense......

Thanks

Clearly the MSN and Hotmail account are correct, since that's the only type
of access allowed at this time. If the bluehost account works, then clearly
it's correct as well. It they work, by definition they're correct.

Given the types of account you describe, synching is two-way. Make a change
on either the server or the client and the change will propagate.
