How to access Hotmail on my Mac Mail?

The plugin HTTPMail has been discontinued. (Source)

So anybody has a viable solution? I really need it urgently for work. Would really appreciate some help.

I believe that was the only option available that worked.

Hotmail now has free POP3 access.

The instructions should be similar for Apple Mail.

It's Microsoft, so of course I'm not sure it works! 😀

I am sure that they offer free POP3 access for Windows Live Hotmail.

Here is a page with more general settings for setting up POP3 access from a mail client.
