I installed Windows Live Mail on Windows 7 Pro and it imported all my
contacts and folders from Hotmail ?? And works fine in all respects EXCEPT it
does not download Junk mail for checking and Forwarded mail at all, never
mind to the correct folders. A previous post it indicated that it will not
download these 2 items if my server is a POP3 server. The server is Bell CA
and it has Windows live (Hotmail) with a very poor setup that downloads these
2 items however my access is still POP3. I like to stay with my server and
e-mail address. Is there any way I can get Windows Live Mail to download
these 2 folders with a POP3 server?
Thanks.

A Hotmail address does not use a Bell CA server.

Tools, Accounts, New, Mail, enter your Hotmail address and password.
This will setup http access.

Is Bell Canada a Windows Live "partner" (as are Qwest and Verizon in the
U.S.)? If not, then there is likely no HTTPMail support for the Bell email
account. If Bell only offers POP3, then you are not going to get what you
want.
