RE: Checking multiple accounts with one account
What exactly do you mean?

Do you mean using the POP3 feature in Plus!?

A little bit more information would be helpful.

Server wants to be the mailserver the e-mail provider tells you to use. Port is almost always 110.
Username and password are fairly obvious.

E-mail is just a piece of text: make it whatever you like.

AFAIK, hotmail does not support POP3 unless you have a premiuim account for which you have to pay.

AFAIK means As Far As I Know.

And yes gmail does support POP3.

First you need to sign in to your gmail account, go to settings at the top right of the page, forwarding and pop3, and check Enable POP only for mail that arrives from now on

Then open the main MSN Messenger, go to plus > preferences > POP3 Email.

Fill in the details like this.

Email address: user@gmail.com

server:   pop.gmail.com

login & Password:   user@gmail.com     <password>

Check This server requires an encrypted connection (SSL) and make sure the number next to the server box has changed to 995.

Then test settings and it should work.
