but I wanted to thank you both very much for your suggestions! Antipodean's suggestion worked to force setting my hotmail account in outlook, although I don't have the same functions I used to, eg. I can't use hotmail to send messages (but at least i get all incoming messages) and so far i've been able to only set it so that once the messages are downloaded in outlook, they disappear from the hotmail server (something I didn't want), or the same email keeps coming again and again u...
