importing address book from hotmail
Hi,
You asked how to import a Hotmail address book into Outlook. Here's one method: Sign up for your free Plaxo account at URL:https://www.plaxo.com/. On the "all new Plaxo" pages (I don't know whether this can be done on the "classic" pages as well), create an "MSN Hotmail/Windows Live" sync point. Import your addresses from Hotmail into Plaxo. Change your Windows Live password. Install the Plaxo toolbar. Click on "Sync". Your local address book will be merged with the one on Plaxo. The above procedure has the security implication of storing your data on Plaxo servers (and moving it to and fro), but if you have trusted Microsoft with your data, perhaps you would trust Plaxo as well. They have been around since 2002. -- Thor Kottelin http://www.anta.net/

I don't use it. Well, I use Plaxo, and I recommend it. If you run into a problem, contact their customer care through e.g. URL:http://www.plaxo.com/support. -- Thor Kottelin http://www.anta.net/

Additionally, there is now a new version (3.2.4.10) of the Plaxo client. If anyone has had any problems with previous versions, an upgrade would probably be in order. -- Thor Kottelin http://www.anta.net/
