Outlook synchronisation with Hotmail

I Have been successfully using Outlook 2007 to synchronise with my @msn.com email account (hotmail). Suddenly I can no longer access emails.

When I try to access email from Outlook I get a message saying:
"Cannot display the folder. Microsoft Office Outlook cannot access the specified folder location. Could not open the item. Try again."

Is this a change that Microsoft has made with Hotmail accounts or has something gone wrong with my setup

Hey, how did you set it up? Did you use a workaround/some sort of server settings, or did you use "Outlook Connector" (http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/ou...225181033.aspx) provided by Microsoft for accessing hotmail within Outlook?

Do you have any other accounts configured in Outlook or is this the only one? It could be an error for one of your other email accounts.

My System

Make sure you have the latest Office Service Pack installed (SP2 for Office 2007) and uninstall/reinstall the Microsoft Office Outlook Connector
