Hotmail POP

Okay now Yahoo has been denied access to. so now I cant access neither hotmail nor yahoo, also thru outlook express does not work, simply, forbidden access, so that we continue to use Syrian ISP email. You get the point now.
I have tried to access maktoob.com and to configure a pop to yahoo, it works but not for hotmail. seems it does not have a pop. so I am open to suggestions for websites (free ones) similar to safeweb.com god bless its soul, some how it does not work.

Thank you

should be -- mail.hotmail.com -- seems strange that you can use yahoo and not hotmail.

if you have ICQ you can also set that up to check a hotmail account.

I don't believe Hotmail supports POP accounts

it's very proprietary. they don't even offer mail forwarding at Hotmail.

You can set up Outlook Express to let you get into a hotmail account without going through the website interface, although whether that would get past the restrictions is debatable.

Just check that this restriction is the case, Microsoft's sites seemed to be down last night.
