Post subject: Hotmail emails send to Hard Drive
Archived from groups: microsoft>public>windowsxp>newusers (more info?)

Hello
I REALLY need help with this one. I use Hotmail as my
email receiver, and it is also accessible to Outlook
Express.
My problem is the size of email messages I receive (both
welcomed and spam/junk, and many items I subscribe to).
I am usually away from my pc all week and trying to catch
up on weekends is terrible.
I have already expanded my storage capacity for Hotmail,
but with all new mail and stored mail, I am again
approaching full capacity.
Is there ANY way I can transfer my emails to the hard
drive to go through later and review, and to clear out
space for my regular Hotmail messages?
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
Autumn

I'm not sure exactly what you want, but if my interpretation is correct, all
you need to do is go to Tools>Accounts>Mail>Select you hotmail one>Click
Properties>In the new window that appears click Advanced>Uncheck the "Leave
messages on server" option. This will cause OE to download the emails and
their attachments to your computer and delete them from the server. You are
then free to browse as you wish from your Hard Drive. I think this is what
you are asking, but if not, post back.

That option is not available for Hotmail.
