I recently upgraded to 1.41. I had been using two different Hotmail accounts on Mail with previous versions of the plugin. Upgrading to 1.41, these two accounts still work. Since installing the new account, however, I've started another Hotmail account, but when I tried to add it as another account in Mail, it doesn't work at all. I have the same settings as the other two (that do work), but I have no idea why it doesn't work. Could it be that the plugin doesn't support account names of a certain character length (this one is a bit longer than the other two)? Or does the plugin "see" when you're trying to use more than a set number of allowable Hotmail accounts in Mail? Thanks everyone.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
'MSN will grant use of Web DAV tools only to paid subscribers of Hotmail....However, Hotmail subscribers who have previously used the technology...will be able to continue to use it for free through March or April of 2005."
So my interpretation is that new accounts cannot use this functionality while old accounts can until early next year.

Thanks for the link. I didn't know that Hotmail was the latest in the series of web-based email providers restricting mail forwarding abilities, which sucks.
