As I have mentioned on the topic,
How can I manage hotmail emails through the tools.
I mean what should I fill in the send and receive server.
Like in windows outlook will do it.
but in Linux I don't know how to do.
Could anyone give me some advise.

thanks!

you need to use a local hotmail proxy, like hotwayd. this will mean that evolution can use hotmail as if it were a normal imap / pop3 server and hotwayd will do that nasty conversion stuff to make it work.

thanks a lot!
It is great that I have done it.
but I do not really know what hotwayd have done and how the service going on.
I think there is still a lot of thing to know.

thanks a lot
