Bueno BigDork me acaba de pasar un articulo en que hablan de este problema. Resulta que microsoft bloquea esto por un tema de seguridad anti spam.. pero que se metan su cuento en el orto, esto es pa sacar plata solamente. El spam sigue llegando tal cual como antes y remover la posibilidad de revisar el correo via OE no tiene nada que ver con medidas serias para evitar que esto ocurra.
Además los mayores spamers tienen la capacidad en $ pa comprar varias cuentas y seguir usando OE... la verdad no se que me da más rabia, que quiten la posibilidad de usar un producto de microsoft junto con otro de microsoft y mandarnos de vuelta a 1996 o que mientan tan descaradamente 
MSN Ends Hotmail's Free Outlook Access
Sept. 27
Citing a rise in spam abuse, Microsoft Corp.'s MSN division has ended free access to its Hotmail Web-based e-mail service through the Outlook and Outlook Express clients.
MSN had offered its 187 million active Hotmail users the ability to read and send e-mail through the e-mail clients rather than a Web interface using a protocol called Web-based Distributed Authoring and Versioning, or WebDAV.
But as of Monday, news users wanting to make use of WebDAV will have to pay for the service, said Brooke Richardson, product manager for MSN's communications services. MSN plans to transition current WebDAV users to subscription plans in the next few months as well.
"We really wanted to try and keep it available to customers for free," Richardson said. "[But] in the last few months we were seeing spammers going more and more after this particular protocol."
WebDAV-based spam abuse has risen following anti-spam measures over the past year, such as enforcing a 100-message daily cap and requiring the solving of proofs to open accounts, Richardson said. The latest move targets spammers who are writing automated scripts for WebDAV to send the daily maximum amount of e-mails from multiple Hotmail accounts.
Hotmail users now will have to sign up for one of two MSN Hotmail subscriptions to gain Outlook access—either MSN Hotmail Plus for $19.95 a year or MSN Premium for $99.95 a year, Richardson said.
Richardson said the subscriptions will allow MSN to better find and thwart spammers because the company will have a record of credit card and other identifiable information on account holders.
