Using Hotmail for Email...
A long time ago on a computer far far away...I used my Hotmail email for personal use and my Microsoft email for business. Outlook Express for Hotmail, Outlook for corpnet email is the way I rolled. Then we pulled support for Hotmail in Outlook Express and I was reduced to using my Hotmail account strictly for IM. I do not like using a web interface for my email on a day to day basis. Once in a while I am cool with, but not on a daily basis.
Well, times have changed! Hotmail in Outlook is coming and you can install the BETA now with Outlook 2007 and get your Hotmail alongside your other email directly in Outlook. http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=7aad7e6a-931e-438a-950c-5e9ea66322d4&DisplayLang=en
