I have recently set up a gmail account, and want to be able to use it for MSN, does anyone know how I can do that? Everytime I tried to sign in using it, it sed my password or username was incorrect.

I know it can be done, because some of my friends use their gmail accounts for MSN, but they are both on holiday!

And sign up under the following:

Use an e-mail address you already have
You can use any existing e-mail address from any e-mail provider when you create your credentials for the Passport Network. Then you can use those credentials to sign in to any site on the Passport Network.

To access e-mail at www.hotmail.com you must use an MSN or Hotmail e-mail address, or an address associated with an MSN Personal Address.

If you’re using Windows Xp, you may have associated your old email as your default passport account to that user account.
