You CAN have hotmail set up in Windows Mail

Add a new account with a dummy email address - anything but a hotmail
address, then go into the Accounts properties and change the dummy
email address to the hotmail address.

I also have GMail, Yahoo set up in Windows Mail.

Re: WINDOWS MAIL

You can access any POP3 or IMAP account, including Hotmail POP3.

Re: WINDOWS MAIL

Just about any you want, except for a few (like free Yahoo accounts)
which have webmail access only.

Re: WINDOWS MAIL

Windows Mail doesn't support HTTP mail, which for a long time was the
only allowed access method for free Hotmail accounts.

However, in February Microsoft enabled POP access for free Hotmail/
Live/MSN accounts. Follow the settings given here:
http://mailcall.spaces.live.com/Blog...33!49799.entry
Use port 587 rather than port 25 for the SMTP server.

Although it accepts the newer Live.com addresses, Windows Mail's
account setup wizard is hard-coded to reject Hotmail and MSN addresses.
To get around that, when you enter your Hotmail/MSN email address initially,
use a fake one, such as me@newsgroup. After the account setup is complete,
go back and correct your email address.

Re: WINDOWS MAIL

If you have the free US Yahoo account, you can't access it with Windows
Mail or Windows Live Mail.

If you have the Yahoo Plus account, then you can access their POP3
server...

Re: WINDOWS MAIL

ok. Thank you. I was thinking that you had to have yahoo plus to check it
on something else.
