MSN Hotmail does not have POP3 servers. You access Hotmail accounts by
using a client with HTTPMail. Only MS Outlook, and MS Outlook Express
have the capability of HTTPMail access; no other client, not even
Thunderbird, can access a Hotmail account. And then only for MSN Hotmail
Plus accounts, or those older Hotmail accounts which were grandfathered.
