Hotmail Customization Configure Hotmail Settings and Options

Configuring Hotmail This series of Hotmail tutorials will go over the various options and settings you can configure not only for Hotmail, but also for other Windows Live services tied into Hotmail (Messenger, etc.)

From changing your name or password, to customizing Hotmail's look, etc. We will go through all preferences available under the "Hotmail Options" screen.

These tutorials are updated regularly as the Windows Live team adds more features to the Hotmail webmail service (like the relatively recent of support for keyboard shortcuts in Hotmail).

Hotmail Options

Many options are available "on-the-fly", like setting the importance of an email, the rich-text or text-only format. These options are not "persistent", and are only applied for the current email, contact, etc. - and they revert to Hotmail's defaults the next time you perform the action in question. These on-the-fly options are treated in the tutorial that best fit the topic.

Our Hotmail options and settings tutorials, on the other hand,  show you how to set persistent preferences that pertain to behavior or appearance.
