[SC.LUG] POP3 Access to Hotmail

[Matthew Tolley]

Hello there,



The company I work for has made the decision (unwisely IMHO) to use a
hotmail (i.e. Microsoft Live Mail) facility for communicating with the
workforce.

I'd prefer to access these emails by POP3 and was wondering what
utilities I could use to do this. There's a program for Windows called
GetMail for Hotmail which I've tried and isn't very stable (surprise
surprise). Apparently it polls the MS server and forwards the mail to
another email address of your choice. 

What stable, Ubuntu-compatible alternatives are there? Alternatively,
does someone know the POP server address or IP address so I can access
them using my email client?

Thanks in advance,




Matthew
