Version: GetMail For Hotmail 3.3
"No Good For FREE HOTMAIL accounts"
Pros: The idea is a good sounding one and most attractive.
Cons: In order for this to work you have to have a 'paid for' Hotmail account, in other words MOST Hotmail account holders will find it of no use. I can not say for sure that it WORKS on PAID FOR accounts (just tell you it 'claims' to work on them, also the review before me says it worked for them), but it DOES NOT WORK for FREE ACCOUNTS, but then again it does say that, but not until you install it. They say they have a 'work around' but that involves a third party (some scripts which need to be up to date), and I don't know about you but I don't REALLY want a bunch of different services handling my (potentially confidential) EMails thank you, so I shall stay with the manual method until a REAL POP Hotmail solution comes along.

Pros: I use it to forward various accounts including my free Hotmail accounts to my Gmail.
Cons: It's a bit fiddly to get the settings right, but once its' done you forget about it and let it do its thing.
I can't get it to work on my free Yahoo Mail account.Summary: Useful overall. Makes it so I only have to check mail in two places instead of 10. read more
