Following up to my pown message, I did download and install HotWayd. Very
sleek indeed. Looks like it will be a better solution than gotmail. Not
that gotmail is bad, but it does have to be run as a precommand in Kmail,
where HotWayd is just another POP3 service.
Anyway, I followed the instructions as written on the web site and set my port
to 8110. I then did
telnet localhost 8110
and got a familiar POP3 greeting. Entering
user [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and
pass secretword
got me another familiar POP3 response after it negotiated with a hotmail
server.
Gil, make sure you're using the correct port in your telnet command, then
reply here to let us know if it's working now.
