What happened to my Hotmail Messenger (MSN?

  • My MSN messenger name is the same as my email address with Hotmail. I want to close Hotmail and switch over to MS Outlook. Will this affect my MSN Messenger name? Also wanted to ...show more

  • Answer:

    i might be confused here, i assume MS outlook is the email program? if it is what you refering to the program can be pointed to your hotmail. the program is normally pointed to an email account with your ISP, but it doesnt have to. But it has to point to an email acc somewhere. you can point it to hotmail as well as another acc at the same time. (2 inboxes)

"I want to close Hotmail and switch over to MS Outlook" - M$-Outlook, a Personal Information Manager, can easily be set up to access your Hotmail account. In Outlook, click on the Help Tab to learn how. You don't have to CLOSE your Hotmail (web based Email) account to do this, and I don't think it's even possible to cancel a Hotmail account. "Will this affect my MSN Messenger name?" - Does this mean you want to change your MSN name? If so, sign up for another Hotmail account. You can have as many as you want. Your Hotmail addresses should automatically be incorporated into Outlook during setup. If not, in Hotmail, click on the Help link to learn how to EXPORT your Addresses to other programs.

Outlook is a program for accessing email NOT an email address.... therefore you will require your hotmail account anyway. and yes you will lose your msn login if you delete your hotmail account....

I think you do, as the two are linked. (you need a hotmail account to sign into msn) Although I'm not 100%
