Default Delivering new email to main inbox - not hotmail inbox - how do I?

How can I get all of my email messages delivered to the main inbox in Outlook 2000 so that I can apply rules and use the organize feature? Right now I have a hotmail email address and Outlook insists on delivering the mail to a separate inbox that it created - apart from the main inbox. And the rules features do not work on the separate inbox.
Please Help!

Are you sure you are using Outlook 2000? Outlook 2000 doesn't have Hotmail
support natively.

No you can't. You can get some of the functionality is you use Hotmail
Popper; a third party tool. This makes a Hotmail account behave more as a
POP3 account.

You are right - it is 2002. So with 2002 - is there any way to get it to
deliver all messages to the main Inbox so that I can use the rule wizard
and organize functions?
