You have to follow the rules on both email services...first you authorize Hotmail to receive email forwarded from your Wildblue email server, then you also have to use your browser, log into your Wildblue email account and authorize it to forward your email to your Hotmail account..

When you've done both of those things you should get a conformation email from Hotmail saying it is now authorized to receive your Wildblue email..

When you log into your WB email account click the drop-down arrow in the "Gear" icon and select "Settings", then click the "Forwarding" button put a tick in the "Forward to" option and complete your Hotmail email address, then save the changes...you can also keep a copy on the WB email server or choose other options below the "Forwarding" options.

Thanks for the input.
This hasn't worked for me.
I've went to hotmail and done that and went to wildblue and done that thing.
I'm doing something wrong I'm not getting them linked together.
I need an allout step by step prcedure to figure this out
I'm lost. Maybe I need something to copy out to get this.

OK, after you set-up the forward-to option in your WB/gmail account you have to wait for your WB/gmail server to send a confirmation message to your Hotmail account...That email will have a link to click that sends a message back to your WB/gmail server that it's now OK to start forwarding email to your Hotmail account..

If you do not get that email in your Hotmail inbox and click the link then you need to start all over...go back to your WB/gmail account untick the "Forward to" option and delete the hotmail address you have entered, then click the button "Add a forwarding address" then re-enter your hotmail address, (do not put a tick in the "Forward to" option at this time, wait until after the confirmation message) click "Save" at the bottom, then do nothing more..wait for the email to be sent to your Hotmail inbox..then click the confirmation link...you don't have to make any changes to your Hotmail account..after you act on the email link you have to go back a second time to your WB/gmail account and put a tick in the "Forward a copy to" then select the account from the drop-down arrow...it's a two step process, all on your WB/gmail server...you do nothing on your Hotmail server except wait for the confirmation message and click the link...

This is the step-by-step procedure:

Here's how to forward messages automatically:

Click the gear icon in the upper right, then select Settings.

Click the Forwarding and POP/IMAP tab.

From the first drop-down menu in the "Forwarding" section, select 'Add new email address.'

Enter the email address to which you'd like your messages forwarded.

For your security, we'll send a verification to that email address.

Open your forwarding email account, and find the confirmation message from the Gmail team.

Click the verification link in that email.

Back in your Gmail account, select the 'Forward a copy of incoming mail to...' option and select your forwarding address from the drop-down menu.

Select the action you'd like your messages to take from the drop-down menu. You can choose to keep Gmail's copy of the message in your inbox, or you can send it automatically to All Mail or Trash.

Click Save Changes.

thanks again for all your concern
What happens now is I can't make the verification from hotmail to work.
It clicks ok and goes to a page but a dialoge box can't confirm it because I either loged on wrong or I'm not on the internet .Both are incorrect near as I
know. This windows 7 has been a nightmare for me.So much time spent.
xp was so staight forward. It seems twice as fast as W-7.
Maybe I should just forget this,more trouble than it's worth.
