Hotmail Account with Mail

[Parpy]

hi

i've tried using httpmail plug-in to create a hotmail account in Mail.
Unfortunately, it keeps showing me an error message:-
An error ocurred while checking for new mail for 'Hotmail Account' ***
-NSCFDictionary setObject:forKey:]: attempt to insert nil key"
What could be the problem? Hope somebody can help.

Thanks

Use Entourage or OE to create the hotmail Account, and then just use the
settings in Mail.

The httpmail plug-in is useless for creating the accounts.

There was a full tutorial posted recently in the Mail forum on the Apple
discussion site. That will probably give you more info.

Me? I've moved back to Entourage .... Mail is still too slow for me.
