Hotmail does not support Pop3.

Only Hotmail Plus (or whatever it is called, which costs) has a pop3 address you can use for external mail programs.

Gmail supports it :). Try it one day. You might like it, and even though its old news you can register now. Plus keep your contacts.... Did i mention POP3

Hey not so fast! Not trying to be mean, but welcome to the forum, take a look at the rules page --> http://shoutbox.menthix.net/rules.html <--

Anyways, you have to get at least 100 posts before you can give reputation votes. Im assuming a few years back you could just rep anyone any time, and that probably failed...... so sometimes new users go on a "rampage" for 100 posts, which sometimes lead to bans.

Yes, but you need to install two extensions.

WebMail and the specific hotmail WebMail extension.
