Or are we to guess that you are trying to use POP to access your Hotmail mailbox? Cutoff for DAV access to Hotmail ended on September 1, 2009. Microsoft switched to Deltasync as their HTTP communications protocol to their webmail service. E-mail clients that support only DAV for HTTP access will no longer be able to use it to access Hotmail. Your choices after the cutoff a - Use POP to access your Hotmail account. - Use a Deltasync-enabled client to see all the folders in your webmail account for IMAP-like access. - Use the webmail interface that has always been there even before Microsoft bought Hotmail. Also see http://www.howto-outlook.com/news/ho...sforbidden.htm POP has no concept of folders. It only understands a mailbox where ALL your e-mails reside. Because POP doesn't use folders, there are no commands within the Post Office Protocol to navigate or select folders. It only has access to your mailbox. The mailbox that POP can access is the Inbox folder you see when using the webmail client to your account. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post_office_protocol http://communication.howstuffworks.com/email.htm http://email.about.com/cs/standards/a/pop_basics.htm http://email.about.com/cs/standards/a/how_pop_works.htm Hotmail has never had and still doesn't have IMAP access. IMAP lets you access other folders in your e-mail account (or, more accurately, those folders to which you have subscribed). Microsoft has hinted that they may make IMAP access possible in the future but no Hotmail user is going to pend using their account until if and whenever IMAP access shows up. The only way to have local access to the non-Inbox folders in your Hotmail account is to use Deltasync (DAV support died on 01-SEP-2009). This protocol makes available all your folders that you defined using either the Deltasync-enabled e-mail client (which then replicates that local folder on the server) or syncs to those folders you created using the webmail client. If you want IMAP-like access to your Hotmail account, you'll need to use either the webmail client or a local e-mail client that supports Deltasync, which a - Windows Live Mail (replaces Outlook Express and Vista's Windows Mail). - Outlook 2003/2007 *plus* the Outlook Connector add-on. The add-on adds Deltasync support since no version of Outlook natively supports Deltasync. The add-on doesn't work with prior versions of Outlook. - Use a screen-scraper proxy or e-mail client that tries to navigate the web pages for the webmail client to Hotmail. There are some screen scraper proxies or clients that will try to navigate the web pages that makeup the webmail interface for Hotmail. That is, they are coded to walk through the Hotmail web site. They act like a local POP-to-HTTP proxy. You configure a POP account in your e-mail client that connects to this protocol converter proxy that then uses HTTP to walk through the Hotmail web site. They aren't reliable. FreePOPs, YahooPOPs (for use with Yahoo Mail only), and Thunderbird with its Webmail proxy are such types of screen-scraper clients. If the webmail interface changes then these screen-scraper clients will fail. You cannot get your e-mails using them until their author gets around to making their web-walking code match the changes to the web site. Since they provide POP access through their converter proxy, you only get access to your mailbox (which is the Inbox folder shown in the webmail client). Since you use POP to connect to the protocol converter proxy, you won't get IMAP or Deltasync access to the other folders available in the webmail client. Since Hotmail, even for free accounts, has POP access, there is no point in using a screen scraper to access Hotmail. |
