Outlook Connector

I’m upset… it seems that Microsoft recently caught a glitch that was allowing Outlook Connector to download mail from Office Live Basics accounts. Wah! Now I can’t get the mail from my sites.
That sucks.
Microsoft is, however, still allowing the access through the use of Windows Live Mail… thing is, I hate Live Mail–it’s just a funky re-write of Outlook Express…
Oh, well…
