    Can I add my hotmail account under Netscape 7.02? If so what is the server setting? I also have problems everytime I create a new mail account. The folders keep pointing back to c:\window\application data\mozillia\profiles\username, even though I created the profile in a new folder. How can I fix this?

    Hi rg88,

    No, because hotmail.com uses a proprietary Microsoft interface that will only function either through the web, or with Microsoft applications such as Outlook Express, etc.

    If you have created your new Profile in a location other than the Default location, then that is your problem. See this page for more information on Moving the Default Profile Location.

    Ramona,

    Thank you, but I did use the instruction on that site when I created the new profile in another location. Any way to fix it?

    rg88,

    In your Mail & Newsgroups Account Settings | Server Settings
    Is the Local directory target line pointing to the correct location?

    Ramona,

    That is the problem. Everytime I create a new account I have to go in manually change the location to point to the correct folder.

    rg88,

    Try this: do not delete, but move the OLD Profile out of the C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Mozilla Folder, to another location on the HD. Then perhaps Netscape will find your NEW Profile on the other drive. Do not remove the C:\WINDOWS\Application Data\Mozilla Folder. It should remain in place.

    Then if no joy, you might have to start again, replacing the OLD Profile on the C:\> drive, and then creating another Profile, etc.

    Ramona :D
