I get this issue sometimes, but i fix it by pressing Get Mail in the top left manually and waiting 2 mins.

the problem is i DO press get mail..but it shows "incoming messages" in the mailbox activities than nothing happens. no mail still shows up.

You can use Mail.app without httpmail now because MSN Live has changed. Do a google search and you can get it working.. see if that works.

I used this site.. has instructions for iPhones and is in a different language but if you figure out where stuff goes then it works in Mail. May be a tutorial for the Mail application itself somewhere else.

Have you tried uninstalling httpmail and seeing whether it works then?
