Evidently they don't allow Mozilla users to access Hotmail; I set Opera to identify itself as Mozilla and they wouldn't let me access the MSN website.

Well, a quick shift to identify as MSIE, and I'm all set...bwahahah!

Meh, I use Yahoo, but I hate the web based UI, so I use the fetchyahoo script to get it for me, then I use Kmail. Sorry, Linux/Unix only (can any winbox mail client handle mbox files?) :P .

Not import, I mean use them instead of a POP3 or IMAP server.

This is odd, because I regularly use mozilla to access and check hotmail accounts.
