Hotmail Popper

[Guest]

I use Outlook to check my hotmail-plus account, I do not get notifications
when I receive new e-mail, visual or audio. I did some research and found
this is because hotmail is recognized as a HTTP account.

I read about the download Hotmail Popper that will allow me to send my
hotmail through Outlook as a POP3 account and therefore activate my
notifications. Is this download safe? Is it easy to set-up? Any advice
would be appreciated....

Also, when I go to my sent e-mail folder all my messages say they are from
me until I view them. Is there anyway to correct that?

But they are from you, by definition. What's to correct? If you want them
to show the recipient address, choose the "Sent To" view.
