Ok, this is for the benefit of all you folks that had problems with hotwayd. It is a inetd daemon, which means you don't run it directly - it is run via your TCP/IP stack and sets up an emulated mail server. So what you're doing really is collecting mail from your own system, and hotwayd will intercept this and go fetch your hotmail. It sounds complicated but it isn't - in other words, *any* pop mailer can collect hotmail and you don't need to go into Microsoft's ad-ridden site.

The package is here. Read the README file to see how to install it for your TCP/IP stack. It's really not so hard.

Anyone got any help for me in removing the log window when using Miami.


Turn off logging or direct to >NIL: or a file. Unfortunately there's no way to stop hotwayd outputting this stuff.
