FreePOPs looks interesting... http://www.freepops.org/en/ - has anyone used
it for what I want to do? It certainly appears to enable Hotmail to be
accessed via Windows Mail.

Also, I wonder if any of the email services which enable one to aggregate
other providers' emails onto the same account, AND support POP3, would
enable me to access my @live.com emails?
