Re: POP3 fetch: a Hotmail Plus feature ?

It's only a 'pull' if you access the Hotmail Web interface and 'push' the pop button.
Once the pop button is 'pushed' mail will be delivered to the Hotmail Inbox.
It does not happen automatically when a Hotmail Plus account is setup in OE, OL, or WLM regardless of how the account is setup(pop3
or http) or the protocol used(pop3, WebDAV, DeltaSync).

The only route for automatic delivery to a Hotmail account[ in WLM/OE/OL/OL with the Outlook Connector] is for all external
accounts to have the capability and enabled to auto-forward mail to the Hotmail account.
