    Is there any way to make this utility work with outlook 2007 for a http hotmail account? (outlook has the windows live connector)

    Not to sure, there are a few posts about chkmail addons, Try searching for chkmail under the asus forums and they should show up.

    I got it working for my Gmail and MSN Mail. It should work for Hotmail HTTP.

    Might I ask how you did this? I searched the forum and internet and couldn't find it. What OS?

    I had another version of chkmail on one of my former notebooks which was able to check for mails itself (no matter what domain). I will try it.

    I got the Chkmail off of Asus's website. Here:

    http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us

    Just search for these terms:

    Product: Notebook
    Series: C90 Series
    Model: C90S

    Now click search, go down to Utilities, and make sure you choose the right version of Chkmail (Vista 32-bit regularly). Now when you first open Outlook, if you have it, it'll ask if you want to set up a HTTP account, and then type in your email and password and it does the work for you. Otherwise, if you already have Outlook set up with another email and want to configure a new account, just go to Tools -> Account Settings... , and click New. The first radio button should be selected, then click Next, and go from there like I mentioned above.

    It should work. Like I said, if Gmail and MSN works, Hotmail should as well. You could try it even if you don't own a C90S, but I don't know what will happen. Good luck. :)
