Transfer all Hotmail Mails to another software

If you still have an old Hotmail account that you use regularly you might be relieved to know that there is a way to update or move all of the mails from that account into another software. Well, another software is not the right term, you can move them into Outlook 2003 or Outlook 2007 and from there into any other mail account such as Gmail, Thunderbird or Yahoo Mail.

The first step would be to download a software called Microsoft Office Outlook Connector from Microsoft. This download is only possible for genuine Microsoft Office users.
Outlook Connector does not require lots of configuration, just enter your username and password and you are ready to go.

All folders and mails will be downloaded from Hotmail and you can either import those into another email program like Thunderbird if you like or import the Outlook pst file into online webmailers such as Gmail or Yahoo Mail.
