How do I send e-mail to my Hotmail contacts via my Outlook 2002?

[Cathy Mc]

I've set up an e-mail account for my Hotmail in my Outlook 2002 client and
have been able to receive and reply to e-mails received from the Hotmail
account. However, I can't figure out how to create and send a new message to
one of my Hotmail contacts. I'm betting it's pretty obvious and I'm just
missing something. Any advice would be much appreciated.

Well, Control-N and typing the address in the To line is the normal way to
create a message, but I'm assuming you want something more than that, where
you probably want to use friendly names you've set up in your address book
in hotmail, so, you'll probably want to grab the Outlook connector from

and install it and then one of your Address Books will be Contacts in your
address @hotmail.com.
