I recently switched from Outlook Express to Outlook, and would like to
receive all my hotmail messages. What are the conection settings for the POP3
and SMTP that I need to enter into the properties of the account?

Hotmail does not support POP/SMTP access at all.

I can only use a POP3 or IMPA server; can't enter HTTP.
Otherwise the link worked well for me to try...
