I can see from poutlook my inbox mail in hotmail, but I can not access my
junk mail.
I stopped using my freebie Hotmail account awhile ago. I only have
OL2002 and Microsoft's Outlook Connector plug-in needed to add Deltasync
only works with OL2003 and OL2007. You didn't mention if you have a
free or Plus (paid) account with Microsoft. If paid, you might be using
their POP and SMTP mail hosts. HTTP access is available for both free
and paid accounts. Until you specify HOW you are accessing your Hotmail
account (and if it is a free or paid account), responses will be just as
vague as was the dearth in details in your post. You didn't even
mention WHICH version of Outlook that you use or your OS.
POP only understands the concept of a mailbox. All mails get delivered
to the mailbox. There are no folders in the mailbox. When you use the
webmail interface to your account, the Inbox folder shown there is the
mailbox. The other folders shown in the webmail interface are
server-side only folders and won't be included in any POP mail polls.
If you had a paid Hotmail account and are using POP (instead of HTTP)
then all you get in a mail poll is what is in the mailbox (which is the
server-side Inbox folder).
If using HTTP (WebDAV was the old scripting command-set protocol and is
replaced by Deltasync) then Microsoft's web-based protocol is similar to
IMAP in reflecting the state in the e-mail client of the server-side
folders. However, in IMAP, you have to subscribe to those other
folders. Usually you or the e-mail client assumes a root node in the
IMAP folders and finds the subfolders and subscribes them for you, but
sometimes you need to do the subscribing. Right-click on the root node
in the folder tree for your Hotmail account and check if there is a
subscribe option (like there would be for IMAP) to include the other
server-side folders.
You could disable Microsoft's antispam filtering option in your Hotmail
account and instead use a more effective client-side solution.
I need also to find out why can I access my messenger but not my mail. This
has been happening for the past week.
I don't use "messenger" (which might be Windows Live Messenger but you
used a generic term for the program). "Messenger" might have its own
newsgroups to ask questions about it. That one network-enabled
application works will prove nothing about the usability of another
network-enabled program, especially when they use completely different
communication protocols.
