Hi:

I am using Outlook 2007 with a free Live Hotmail account. I already had an
email created, and Outlook was up, running and downloading Hotmail through
the HTTP protocol. I did not want to lose any of my emails or have a break
in my service, so I downloaded/installed the Connector.

I'm not sure I know what you mean about "defining it under add-on's
control." I looked under the tools>account settings and found that hotmail
is now using a MAPI protocol instead of HTTP. Is this what you are speaking
of?

Thanks for your help.
