As I understand the operation of the extension, it acts like a browser and logs in to the Hotmail web pages (in all modes except webdav). Instead of parsing the HTML on the web page and displaying it on your computer screen it extracts the email information from the web pages and converts it to a standard email protocol. The extension then acts as a normal POP3 server to pass the email to Thunderbird. Any change in the format of the pages by Hotmail or the addition of extra pages to tell you that Hotmail has changed break the extension. In the case of extra information pages, visiting the Hotmail site and checking "Do not show this again", will usually restore normal service. vtel57 wrote: > My Hotmail account started the "negative vibes" "password not > accepted" baloney earlier tonight.
