POP3 message retrieval by jarvster3000 on 06-18-2004 at 11:20 AM

Ok I set up 2 other POP3 accounts in MSN Messenger Plus and sure enough the little box appeared over the MSN icon in the System Tray and told me I had 61 messages.
These 61 messages were from one of the other POP3 accounts I had. Trouble is, when I clicked on the message box it opened up Hotmail which clearly wasn't the one with the new messages.
I thought it might collate all the message from all accounts into 1 screen.
Secondly, is this at all affected by the last field on the POP3 setup about launching a link or Program (which I left blank)?

Ok, for example. For my Yahoo account I stick in http://www.yahoo.co.uk or http://mail.yahoo.com
I can't seem to get it to directly open my mail page without asking me for a password. I kinda hoped that by entering the details it would do that automatically. Especially since it has checked the account in the 1st place. It must be possible I'm sure. Can any other people do this?
