Are you saying I can read my hotmail with that program ? I mostly get spam
at my hotmail accounts, but still have subscriptions - confirmations etc at
my hotmail accounts and at least with Windows Live Mail I cant see those 4
email accounts in one program rather than log into hotmail 4 times.

I actually like Windows Mail [not live mail] a lot - too bad I cant check
hotmail accounts with it .. Just Microsoft being difficult [or something]
