Outlook 2011 syncing problem

[blaake]

I had ms outlook 2010 on my pc and when i made the switch over to a mac i got outlook 2011 and when i added my email account, it did not sync any of the folders that i created. i did not create them in outlook 2010, i created them on hotmail.com. i hope someone has an answer for me...

I don't use hotmail, but if it's being setup using POP, you won't get your server side folders. If hotmail supports IMAP, you can get to the folders. I have the same situation with Yahoo mail. It defaults to POP but if I manually configure as an IMAP server (iOS uses this protocol), I can access my folders.

Someone here might see this and give you a link to the settings. Otherwise I suggest Googling hotmail IMAP settings to see what you can find.
