Windows Live Mail access to Outlook 2007 beta?

[ilanc]

How do I access my Windows Live mail (beta) from Outlook 2007 (beta)? I
can't work out how -- and I'm even willing to pay if that's what it
takes.

thanks! ([email protected])

You can try setting up an HTTP mail account but due to the double beta
condition, it may not work.

It works for me.

OK problem resolved. Turned out that IE7 beta2 was the culprit -- once
I removed IE7 and reverted back to IE6, hotmail access (actually
Windows Live Mail beta) from Outlook 2003 and 2007 worked again.

I got the same problem but hadn't thought that IE7 beta could have been
the issue ! Note that IE7 Release Candidate 1 (RC1) also causes this
issue. When it is installed, outlook 2007 beta 2 will ask your hotmail
account password over and over again (error messages will mention that
the password was invalid, and will randomly crash when you attempt to
minimize or close the application. A simple uninstall of IE7 beta or
RC1, followed by a proper reboot will instantly fix the issue ! How
strange ! Hope it helps, because I've looked a lot before finding the
culprit ! Thanks Josh !
