Not the Office versions, at least through the 2010 version. The web based Outlook took the place of Hotmail. Here is the Wikipedia explanation: Outlook.com is a free web-based email service run by Microsoft. One of the world's first webmail services,[3] it was founded in 1996 as Hotmail (stylized as HoTMaiL) by Sabeer Bhatia and Jack Smith in Mountain View, California and headquartered in Sunnyvale.[4][5][6] It was acquired by Microsoft in 1997 for an estimated $400 million and launched as MSN Hotmail, later rebranded to Windows Live Hotmail as part of the Windows Live suite of products.[1][7] The last version was released in 2011.[8] As of 2011, Hotmail had 360 million users per month.[9] It was available in 36 different languages.[10][11] In 2013, Hotmail was replaced with Outlook.com, which features Microsoft's Metro design language, and closely mimics the interface of Microsoft Outlook. It also features unlimited storage, Ajax, and integration with Calendar, OneDrive, People and Skype.[12 Aloha Wayne, NH6K -----Original Message----- From: computers-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:computers-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Nivard Ovington Sent: Friday, March 28, 2014 9:48 AM To: computers@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [COMPUTERS] which email program is the best to use?

No, they are not. You can use Outlook for almost all internet based emails in additional to pop type. Sent from my Kindle Fire In God We Trust
