Based on user feedback, MS decided to delay the disabling of WebDAV. Plugin was broken by 10.5.3 for me on my mac pro, so it looks like I'm going to need to move to gmail for a decent free email service.

The essence of HTTP mail is the ability to read my mail in Mail.app no matter where I am. I work from a laptop and most places besides my home ISP connection block POP and IMAP. This was the *only* solution. Sad. Not devastating, but an end to an elgant solution.

As of June 30th 2008, my plugin will cease to function as Microsoft has decided to terminate HTTPMail (also known as WebDav) protocol access. They have replaced this protocol has been replaced by a new one called DeltaSync. Unfortunately DeltaSync is undocumented and uses non-standard compression and encryption of message data. Until these issues can be resolved there is nothing I can do to fix my plugin.

If you have a Hotmail Plus account you should still be able to access your mail using the POP3 protocol. The details for setting up POP3 access is as follows.

Incoming mail server: pop3.live.com (port 995)
Outgoing mail server: smtp.live.com (port 25)

Username: your full hotmail email address

NOTE: the outgoing mail server requires authentication
