You now need to pay for external access in Hotmail. Good old Microsoft

Get a Gmail sooner rather than later.

Mail has a preview window. Does it not show up for you with any other accounts you have?

Also, I think Entourage can do Hotmail, if you prefer that application.

It sounds like you have closed the preview pane. If you look at the bottom of your list of messages, there will be a small dot in the window border. Grab it with your mouse pointer and drag it up to show the preview pane.

I've been using this since November (or some type of plugin).... Today, my mail went haywire and I can install this but it disables my Mail app entirely.
I cannot open/mail. All I can do is get into preferences, etc. and force quit.

IDK what to do. I can't load this plugin for anything. I've tried manually and with the installer. Does anyone know of a way to install this thing?
Or an alternative hotmail plugin?
