Answer 1

Entourage and other computer based e-mail programs need a POP3 or IMAP accounts in order to work. The free Hotmail is web-based email only. You would have to subscribe to MSN premium or whatever else offers POP3 access. Gmail is good and they have free POP3 access for your Entourage. Bluebottle and your current ISP would be some alternate routes to go. By the way, Entourage sucks in my opinion. I prefer to use Mac's Mail program already installed on your computer. It really integrates into your computer better, and is more intuitive than Entourage. That is just my opinion. Hope I helped
