Thanks SidVicious. Hotmail Popper is a small application that allows you to check your Hotmail account e-mail from a normal POP mail client (such as Eudora, IncrediMail, Mozilla Thunderbird, Opera, Netscape, etc). Unlike standard mail accounts which allow users to retrieve their e-mail through a POP mail client, Hotmail can normally only be checked on the web. With Hotmail Popper, you can use your favorite POP mail client to retrieve your e-mail from your Hotmail account. In addition, Hotmail Popper allows you to send e-mails through Hotmail's service, as if it was a normal SMTP (outgoing mail) server.

Changelog:

Removed affiliate links
Fixed error message when hiding icon

Download: Hotmail Popper 3.0.1 Trial

I'll leave you to decide exactly how good it is; the first comment on the page is a bit... depressing!

umm, outlook express does this for free

#2.1 configure on 27 Feb 2004 - 01:58

The whole selling-point of this program is to give users the alternative to Outlook Express.

This is under the same premise as Yahoo! POPS, a program that I use everyday to check my Yahoo! mail through Mozilla's Mail component. It really is much nicer to have access to these accounts through the same program that you use to check numerous other accounts. Hotmail users, I'd at least give it a try.

I'll just stick to the web interface

#5 kainashi on 27 Feb 2004 - 06:45

i'll stick with the free one.

#6 Avi on 27 Feb 2004 - 08:06

I'll stick with my ISP's e-mail.

[QUOTE]Hotmail account e-mail from a normal POP mail client (such as Eudora, IncrediMail, Mozilla Thunderbird, Opera, Netscape, etc).

Incredimal could do this since we have been using it (2yrs).

#8.1 memodude on 01 Mar 2004 - 05:31

Yeah, but IncrediMail sucks, and other e-mail clients don't.

#8.2 sputnik on 01 Mar 2004 - 08:39

true that. time to get the free version and get thunderbird. for real

#8.3 [ timko ] on 06 Mar 2004 - 21:56

I'll have to give this a try in Thunderbird

#8.4 [ timko ] on 07 Mar 2004 - 15:04

Yep, works pretty good with Tbird... all i need to do now is put it in a batch file so it starts whenever I start TBird

#8.5 mipra on 16 Jun 2004 - 04:10

great ideaa...

IzyMail seems to be a better value than this.

Plus, IzyMail does Yahoo and AOL and supports IMAP interfaces, too.

#9.1 mipra on 16 Jun 2004 - 04:11

wow..izzymail..hmm..time to give it a try
