The Live Hotmail Rename Tool allows you to rename the account name and the folder set for Outlook Connector accounts in Outlook to a name other than the email address of the account. By doing so, you can use a more meaningful name or a shorter name to fix some interface issues.
Main Program Features
- supports multiple mail profiles
- supports multiple Outlook Connector accounts in a single mail profile
- supports any Outlook Connector account (@hotmail.com, @live.com, @hotmail.xx, @live.xx, Office Live accounts, etc…)
- autodetects if a configured account uses the Outlook Connector or not
- allows you to specify a different name for both the Folder Set and the Account Name individually
