    I did not got to Snow leopard. I did a regular update to OS X 10.5.8 (if this is the same I will feel sheepish for saying something but I don't thing they are the same)

    STORMY1083  Hi,

    This plugin worked for as long as I have had it installed. As far as I can tell the information is correct in the mail app, but after doing a routine update it stopped. It gives me a message saying it is forbidden to connect to my hotmail account. This happened about 3 or 4 days ago.

    I anyone else experiencing this problem? How do I fix it? I can't say much other than It was updated, restarted and turned off for the night. The next morning it wouldn't connect. My other mail accounts are working just fine.

    Help is needed and very appreciated.

    ANONYMOUS  Many thanks to Daniel for maintaining this freeware for us for so long! He can finally let it rest, because the plugin is no longer necessary.

    Microsoft has finally, at long last, made POP3 access available for all hotmail accounts (even free ones). Instructions can be found at http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20090407112314693

    JAYYOO  Hi, Im having trouble installing this application. I cant seem to find

    HTTPMail in picking acccount type. I only have POP, IMAP, and Exchange listed.

    I tried to close my mac mail and relaunch after installing (the application said i installed successfully).

    What am i doing wrong? I know you must get tonnes of emails, but im a little slow. Do I also have to upgrade to hotmail plus?

    I am running with Mac OS 10.5.6

    Thanks.

    AKANICO  Plug is working without any problem on 10.5.6 and installation is as simple as double clicking the icon.

    Only thing that bothers me is not being able to delete messages on the server, tried to 'erase deleted messages' like it is told in the FAQ but they keep coming back when syncing with hotmail account.

    Nice to get the mails and everything but too bad can't delete them.

    Useless to me for that matter...
