I could be way off base but I thought I read something about a way to
configure a pocket pc to enable it to get mail from either MSN or Hotmail
via pop settings but I didn't write it down at the time and I can't find
anything about it. Was this a vivid dream or is it possible?
Thanks,
Tim

It apparently used to be possible to get hotmail mail via any pop client
(desktop or ppc), however I am unaware of this being currently so. I can't
check it because I don't use hotmail - I got this information first-hand
from colleagues.
I think msn/hotmail have stopped this so that you HAVE to go to their site
and see their adverts etc etc.

You might be thinking of Pocket MSN. Ths allows hotmail or MSN mail to be
accesssed thru the standard messaging screen in the same way as POP3 mail.
