Does anyone know how to build a email viewer which views email from a hotmail account in delphi?
I kinda figure that there is possibly alot of encryption with hotmail so its possibly better to read from a isp email account instead.
Actually HotMail is HTTP-based, and delivers data in an XML format. I can't really tell you much more than that, since I only found that much by accident while browsing some sniffed packets.
Oh, and it's all in plain-text. No compression, no HTTPS, etc.
Is it better or easier for me to read from a isp email account?
It's definitely easier to use POP3, since at least that is a) documented and b) standard.
