EVERYONE!!! The new 29b4 version works, but you have to make some Windows Live changers first: With the new hotmail, you now need to change your windows live settings to "Show me my inbox when I sign in". 1. In hotmail, choose >Options>more options. 2. On the left side of the page under "show options for", choose "Windows Live". 3. Under "Home", choose "Customize Windows Live Home". 3. Mark "Show me my inbox when I sign in". The new 29b4 works fine with the new hotmail after I made these changes. It also marks messages read. (The old version also started working after making these changes, but did not mark the messages read. I would get multiple copies of the same Hotmail message in Thunderbird). Everything is back to normal for me. Thank you to the author for a timely update!!
