What I want to do:

1) Be able to download my emails (hotmail acct & others), then read offline.

DETAIL:  Used to use Outlook (probably 2007?) but was infected a few years ago. Wiped HD, reinstalled all, but Outlook (2007?) has never worked again. Currently using Windows LiveMail to access online.

2) Add a second email addy, to be accessed via the same download/offline process.

DETAIL:  Created a Microsoft acct alias (@outlook.com addy), added to Windows LiveMail, but it just duplicates ALL emails under BOTH account names, and won't let me create a rule to moved outlook.com emails to their own folder unless I create the folder all the way down in STORAGE (which I did not create and NEVER see or use).

Sorry some of this is stale for folks, but I am not a "new is better, jump on it" person. Once something works well for me, I hang on until progress pries my clenched fingers loose.

Apparently, progress has arrived...
