Hotmail tools

Email clients, checkers and other tools that work with Windows Live Hotmail accounts.

NOTE: As of March 2009, Hotmail offers access via POP3 (Port 995, SSL) and SMTP (Ports 25/587, SSL). As a result, many other email programs (including various full clients, compact clients and mail checkers) may now be used with Hotmail accounts.
