If you just need "webmail" and not specifically Hotmail, Yahoo supports POP3, you just need to enable it (free) in the Mail Options pages.

Re: Yahoo supporting pop3 mail - I think it was available free a while back, but they made it a pay option (~$20/yr)... If you are talking about retrieving yahoo email via your pop3 email program.


Well I got it free :-)

This is to enable retrieving via POP3 in web-browsers and/or standalone e-mail clients. You just have to sign up for some "promotional email", yet even then you can choose "only send me the categories below", and don't choose any.

When I set it up (about 3 weeks ago) I admit I used mail2web to test it, but I just added an account to Opera 7.03's mail client and it picked my mail up fine.

Have to say, this was from the UK though?
