i have a hotmail account, but i wanna automatically direct any of the mail i get to that to my new hotmail account

ive already tried "GetMail" that didnt work.

any ideas?

have you used the i think the Filters inside hotmail options?

There's nothing inside Hotmail to do that.

there is no forward option yet in hotmail. for example if you had a sec gmail account, you could have set your hotmail account to receive them, because that's a feature of gmail.

however hotmail provides a POP Mail Retrieval which comes with the paid account. Using it i guess you can retrieve most of the accounts.

Many regards

been a long time since i used crap old shottymail . only thing you can do is tell friends your new email an get them to delete the old hotmail address an send email to the new addy..

[theory]
Hotmail provides a POP Mail retrieval for paid accounts, but, free accounts can almost get POP access using Hotmail Popper (hotpop).

Hotpop is a program which you tell your Hotmail username and password. Hotpop logs in to and gets the webpages with you email on it (doesn't show you this). It decodes the pages, and then makes the actual email available on the POP server that it starts on your computer.

You could use a program to access your emails through hotpop, and have that program forward the emails to your new address.

Thats esentailly what GetMail did but it wdnt work ^^^^^^

i need to divert it, coz im on ALOT of improtant mailing lists and so forth on my old one, too many to go back and change all

is there a hack or something liek that where i can upgrade hotmail without paying then? i know mess.be leaks em sometimes

My POP3 still works for hotmail

Yea i think old accounts that did use it still can, I still can too.  But new accounts or people who didnt used to use it cant.
