MSN Hotmail - Browser Limitations

Web Browser software Limitations
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your current Software Will Limit Your Ability to used Hotmail.

You are using a browsder that hotmail does not supprot.If you continue to use your current browser software we cannot guarantee that Hotmail will work porperly for you.

Hotmail supports the followingweb browser:
*microsoft Internet Explorer-version 4.0or higher.

We recommend that you upgrade your web browser software and invite you to download the laest version of Internet Explorer.

If it's not working then...

Use a different email provider, use an X browser, host your own email server, email hotmail and let them know you disapprove of this, and that you use links and wish for them to support it, call up Bill Gates and tell him he's not the only person on this planet and after he gasps in amazement ask him to throw support for other browsers in for hotmail..
The list goes on like that.

Cool

Oh and you could also look into things like fetchmail to grab the mail off the hotmail servers to deliver to your local mailbox; or some of the http supporting mail clients as well. I've never used either one of those, so good luck

Cool
