A few months ago, I received an email in all of my Hotmail accounts that Microsoft will be disabling the Dav protocol which will break Outlook Express functionality. This was disheartening because I, for one, really dislike Hotmail’s web interface. I find it extremely clunky and slow and would never actually use my email if that were the only way for me to access it. Yes Hotmail is no longer my main email, however I do still maintain three accounts with them for legacy’s sake. From the email/website:
As of June 30, 2008, Microsoft is disabling the DAV protocol and you will no longer be able to access your Hotmail Inbox via Outlook Express. As an alternative, we recommend that you download Windows Live Mail, a free desktop e-mail client that has the familiarity of Outlook Express and much more.
