Outlook Express and Hotmail/Yahoo

I believe it to be possible to set OE to check your hotmail account or maybe Yahoo. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how and if there are any problems associated with it?
Thanks

Edited to learn how to spell Account and not be rude

Cheers TCS,
I have OE5, and was wondering if anyone else has done this, is it really worth it etc?
BTW Why was the word account blocked off in my first message?

Thanks again

The word being "starred" out may well be a minor spelling misteak you made, which the auto-censor has picked up on.

As for "is it worth it" - it saves having to log into multiple web accounts if you have more than one, and avoids long periods spent online doing nothing but watching pages download since you can download new emails, drop the connection, then dial back up when you want to send them.

Lightbulb Spelling .......

I guess if the spelling mistake included something along the lines of missing out a "c" and the "o" in "ACCOUNT" it would get starred out as it would look like a very rude word !

The nanny spell-checker has also never heard of that well-known place in Lincolnshire called S C U N T H O R P E. Because if you spell it correctly, i.e. S****horpe - see what happens?

But Stwatthorpe is OK!
