If she's had the Hotmail account for years, she was probably grandfathered into the POP system instead of paying for it, like I was. That said, in Entourage, just use the Account Set Up Assistant. It will easily walk you through adding email accounts to the program and Hotmail accounts are the easiest. Really. You can access it by doing this:
1. Go to the "Tools" menu, then choose "Accounts" near the bottom
2. It should automatically be in the "Mail" section. Click the "New" button
3. Walk through the set up assistant. There's a button on the screen with the option of setting it up manually {see below}
Just in case here's an article from Microsoft to manually configure an email address account:
"Get your e-mail account up and running" http://www.microsoft.com/mac/products/en...ourage2004&type=howto&article=/mac/LIBRARY/how_to_articles/office2004/en_mailaccount.xml
I hope this helps...
