Do you use Thunderbird as your default mail client to check your POP accounts? Do you have a Hotmail/Windows Live Mail account? Do you wish you could use Thunderbird to check you web based mail? Well now you can. All you need to do is install the WebMail add-on, then select which service you would like to tap into. The app creates a server on your machine as a link to access the mail server. Other web based services are also available. The website is here, and you can download the files for enabling Hotmail here. To install:
- Open up Thunderbird.
- Point to Tools.
- Then add-ons.
- Click Install and browse for the Web Mail xpi first and then the Hotmail xpi.
- For detailed info about setting up your account click here.
At last an end to the SLOW hotmail interface and site. You now have all your emails in the same place.
Support is also available for GMail.
