httpmail plugin allows the standard Mac OS X Mail application (Mail.app) to retrieve your Hotmail email. Once plugged in you will get all the benefits of Mail.
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)
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.
SZERKO I have the same problem, it happened a few days ago, pls heeelp! (Version 1.53)

HAMADAY2K Hey Daniel thank you for the plug inn i don't you if you noticed that with snow leopard the plug inn is not working i hope you can get this fixed as u always do

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 (Version 1.53)
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.
