[G4] OSX Mail App!

[Brett Caven]

Hotmail uses a proprietary format (known as HTTP in Outlook?) which  
only works with seasoned account (about three/four years old now) and  
paid accounts. Sadly, you'll either have to live with the god-awful  
web interface, dish out some cash, or upgrade to a better email  
service (may I recommend Gmail from Google).
