+1 for this suggestion.

I remember the days when I had to set up a computer to get Hotmail
using the WebMail add-on. It never seemed to work quite right.

But then a magical thing happened and Microsoft started having a
POP3 service for hotmail accounts. We kicked that WebMail add-on
to the curb, and never looked back.

Have a nice day,

Phil
