MSN does have a smtp server it is ... smtp.email.msn.com |

| Is MSN still using some weird authentication on that server or did they switch to a standard one? I've never been able to get any software that does SMTP AUTH to actually try to give it.
I've found FreePOPs invaluable. It's a proxy that converts POP3 into all the weird webmail stuff that various providers use. www.freepops.org (No, I"m not affiliated with it in any way, just a happy customer.) |

| reply to huntermcdole my understanding is that those old pop3 and smtp servers didn't work anymore. You can setup an msn account in outlook and outlook express, but it's an http server with the address of »oe.msn.msnmail.hotmail.com/cgi-bin/hmdata and outlook requires outlook connecter to get it to work right. |
