Using Outlook for Contacts Only

[AZGeld]

Is there a way to configure Outlook to manage contacts only? I don't use it
for email (I use MSN), and have 2000+ emails that are in the inbox. I think
if I delete them on Outlook, they'll be deleted from MSN? I don't want them
in both places. Help, please!

What do you mean by "I use MSN"?

Remove your mail account or simply mark Outlook to not send/receive and to
leave messages on the server.

You can create a no-mail profile in Outlook. If you make a new profile,
cancel the new acct wizard, or if you have a profile you want to keep using,
delete the email account.
