When you re-open outlook it will prompt you to create a new email address.
Select HTTP. This mail setup is not like POP3, it is easier. Once you put in
your email address and password, it fill all other requirements without you
having to do anything.
If you still have problems with Outlook, I would uninstall and reinstall
Outlook.
I still cannot set up the Windows Live Hotmail. I did the steps to set it up
using a HTTP, but the test failed. Also, I really do not want the converter.
I don't want to crash again. Is there any other way? By the way setting up
the HTTP did not give me a prompt to download the connector. I think I'll
just cancel the Windows Live email if there is no method to make it work with
Outlook without the connecter.
For your data, go to File, datafile management. The new mail delivery
location should be listed there. Click on it and click open folder. That
should take you to where the new pst file is location. Your old pst file
should also be there. Make note of the location and file name. Close the
folder.
Now use "add" to go to that location and open the other pst file.
Go to folder view and you will then see both files. I usually copy and paste
the folders from one file to the other. Then I go back to the datafile
management and remove the older folder.
