direct access to hotmail accounts from TLB would be wonderful

i have devised my own way of doing it....(copying the .html file that windows messenger uses to log in)

but if you could develop a plugin to access hotmail accounts (multiple) im sure tons of people would enjoy it and find it handy (dunno bout legal issues though..it is MS)....

just a sug
enjoying the bar!

just thought of another

along with the email notify plugin you could have
possibly a 'compose new email' plugin

click on the TLB shortcut and it takes you to the mail composition program within email clients...possibly one that accesses the hotmail composition too?

Could you explain how you used Messenger's .html file to do this? I'd like to be able to check Hotmail through TLB myself.

I think this would be a great feature to bring officially into TLB too, access Hotmail and other similar sites if they don't support POP3.

yeah i agree it can be a great thing!

i thought about it too actually...

can u explain how to do that with the html file of windows messenger?

hello, i'm using trillian for both MSN and ICQ, it can check hotmail account by
Code:
https://lc1.law13.hotmail.passport.com/cgi-bin/dologin?login=user_name@hotmail.com&passwd=user's _password
in Internet Explorer, that's how I logon hotmail nowdays.
It's obvious not scure compare to the html file generated by MSN Messenger, but I use it for collecting juke mails only, so I don't care that much.

Hope this helps
