see this :

Follow the directions very closely, and come to your own conclusions with some parts.

If you can't figure a wizard-based configuration out, then you don't deserve gmail.

1. ok i went to gmail.com, but how the heck should i register, it says "We're currently only offering Gmail as part of a preview release and limited test. We don't have details on when Gmail will be made more widely available, as that depends in part on the results of the test."

2. using hotmail with outlook express, i created an account in outlook express, but when i click on send/recv icon it says "Unable to poll for new messages on your HTTP server. Account: 'Hotmail', Server: 'http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp', Protocol: HTTPMail, Server Response: 'Access to Hotmail via Outlook and Outlook Express now requires a subscription. Please sign up at http://upgrade.msn.com', Port: 0, Secure(SSL): No, Error Number: 0x80004005"

3. previously some ages ago i used yahoo pop3 with incedimail Xe, but yahoo stopped pop3 support, and started charging. then i came to know abt yahoo pops but whenever i hit the send/recv button it used to download each and every mail from my yahoo box inbox. so stopped using that and again started using html interface.

4. abt using "http://www.softhome.net" & "http://www.hotpop.com" are they good, i.e. some mail services take days to deliver mails, if they arent the same pls lemme know.

thnx for all ya guys[/list]
