Checking multiple accounts with one account by stevonavich12 on 06-15-2005 at 11:49 PM
It doesn't work for me for some reason.

What exactly do you mean?
Do you mean using the POP3 feature in Plus!?
A little bit more information would be helpful.

Yes, that one.
EDIT: To make things faster, can one of you guys MSN me at stevonavich_12@hotmail.com ???

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.

what account do you want POP3 to be enabled for? Gmail?

It is a hotmail account. What is the server for it?

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

i don't use my pop3 on msgplus for gmail... it works with outlook though so in theory it should work

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.

I beleive that the hotmai server is :
http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp
and port 110
that is what i used in my early days when i had a hotmail account
maybe you should try that...

I don't think that server will work for pop3 in messenger plus. It's a http server.
EDIT: Just checked it and it said server could not be contacted.
