It looks like the problem may be related to cookies and curl's support for them. The 7.10 gotmail has better support for cookies that apparently only some of the hotmail servers need. This cookie support looks like it's only available in curl version 7.9 and above. My RedHat 7.2 system only had curl 7.8, which wouldn't work. I upgraded curl to 7.9 and gotmail seems happy now. Anybody that wants to be a 'guinea pig', give the gotmail included in this mail a try, but you MUST have curl 7.9 or better. Man, maybe it's about time I upgraded from RedHat 7.2 :) After all the changes that MS did on the hotmail front-ednd, why-oh-why do they still hard code IP addresses in their image URLs? They use URLs like http://65.54.244.24/crs_918.gif, which my squidGuard proxy BLOCKS to help hide obscene images from my family. I'm a programmer myself and I'd get yelled at for hardcoding IP addresses like that. _______________________________________________ Gotmail-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gotmail-list
