outlook express can integrate with hotmail, so its possible to use both at the same time, so while you are away the hotmail can act as your email.
Also a lot of isps allow web based email to access your own pop3 mail accounts while travelling, you should check your isps startup page or email pages for info.
If you are looking for access to archived mail, configure your email program to leave a copy on the server, this means though your email box will fill and youll have to prune it yourself as generally there is a low limit on most isps pop3 accounts, but it will allw you to gain access to stored emails anywhere you can read pop3.
