I just found this plugin yesterday and after kicking the tires a bit, I have a couple of questions.
First, I have both a Hotmail and an MSN account, and I'd like to be able to check both. I set up the Hotmail account and it seems to work without any problem whatsoever. However, when I then set up my MSN account it appears not to connect. I don't get any error messages, it simply does not return the messages that are sitting in the In Box on the server. Is it possible to retrieve mail from both a Hotmail and an MSN account, or is this setup going to cause the plugin some confusion?
Second, sending mail. Based on the setup directions, it appears that this plugin allows one to read e-mails but not to send. Is this correct? In order to send an e-mail would I have to set up my own SMTP server?
Thanks for what apears to be a great plugin!

Never mind. I rebooted my machine and now both accounts successfully connect and send e-mails just fine.
Sorry for any confusion.
