I've replied to this in demon.ip.support.newuser. If you want to post the same question to more than one newsgroup, please cross-post it (type both newsgroup names on the same line) rather than posting separate articles.

Hotmail uses an unpublished proprietary protocol. As far as I know, only Outlook Express (what a surprise) is capable of reading mail from Hotmail. >....in the opening graphic in the help manual i can >see a tab called 'hotmail" and that's why i'm asking the question....thanks >for any help....Gary. In the good old days, before Microsoft bought Hotmail, Hotmail operated a standard POP3 mail server as an alternative to using the Web interface. That was dropped by Microsoft who dislike standard protocols :-( Regards, Mike. -- Solaris on Intel: http://www.kempston.org/solaris/
