Accessing msn email via linux
Has anyone been successfull in accessing their msn.com ISP email from Linux.

I have tried both Evolution and Mozilla with no luck. I can't access either the pop3 or smtp servers. I can ping both however but other then that NG.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
gps

Although I don't use MSN, I've used Linux to access mail on various ISPs for some time. I use (and recommend) fetchmail for this purpose; it is solid, flexible and full-featured.

Hope this helps.
