Any ideas is easy. An good ideas is harder. :-)
The pop3 format only downloads from the server Inbox.
Is this a one time transfer or something that needs to happen on each
download?

It turns out that I did need to keep the stop processing more rules. I
ended
up creating two Inboxes as sub-folders to Local Inbox. I called them
Inbox1
and Inbox2. I set up rules for each of these 2 inboxes. Now it works
perfectly. My email goes into each of these 2 new inboxes and nothing
goes
into the main Local Inbox.

The only thing that I can't figure out is how to retrieve my Hotmail Bulk
Mail using the pop3 format in outlook express. Any ideas?

Is there a reason why you didn't add Stop processing more rules?
It is recommended that you add Stop processing.

Thanks, Bruce. I finally got to try out your suggestion today. It
worked
great, when I didn't use the "stop processing more rules." Pretty
weird,
huh?

First, create a local folder to be used as a second Inbox and name it
anything you want. (Inbox-2)? Use this for one of the accounts, and
the
default Inbox for the other.

Then create a message rule.

Where the message is from the specified account.
Move it to the specified folder & Stop processing more rules.
Click on: Specified Account and enter the account name for the second
Inbox.
Click on: Specified Folder and select the folder you created.
Name the rule.

Move this rule to the top of the rules list and the incoming messages
will
be separated into their respective folders.

I have 2 pop3 email accounts, but I'd like to keep them separate in
Outlook
Express. I'd like for all the emails from one account to show up in
one
folder and all the emails from the other account to show up in
another
folder. Is it possible to not have all the emails show up in the
Inbox
folder? Thanks.

This would need to happen on each download. I really like Hotmail and have
had it for years. I've been using the bulk mail folders to screen out all
emails from anyone that is not in my address book or safe list. However, I
feel like the bulk mail feature will not be supported when I set up a POP3
account for Hotmail. I would hope that Microsoft has a solution. :+)

See my reply to your other thread (w/ subject 'Error 800ccc34').

You won't have access to any of those Hotmail folders in OE once you switch
to POP3: Only messages in your Hotmail inbox will download into OE.

Thanks, PA Bear. I don't know how many hotmail users still use Outlook
express to view their Hotmail account, but my gut tells me that all of them
will be unhappy with the change on 9/1/09. In my humble opinion, outlook
express is so much better than Windows Live.

Well, I can assure you that MS and the Windows Live team couldn't care less,
Steve...most likely because Win7 (and future Windows versions, most likely)
will not include any default Mail Client, let alone OE.
