I was wondering if there is a Hotmail checker that works on the Mac. I am looking for something that works like Google's Gmail checker, notifying you of an email soon after you receive it.

You can use Daniel’s HTTPMail Plug-in, which will allow you to check, read, and send email through Hotmail using Mail.app.

I can't remember if Mail.app provides its own pop-up notifications, but if it doesn't, you can use Growl to show the notifications (for Mail.app and a whole bunch of other stuff).

If you're using POP or IMAP, I would recommend using Mail.app w/ the GrowlMail Plugin.

Hotmail (now known as Windows Live Mail) apparently only provides POP3 access to paying customers. – Jared Harley Dec 29 '09 at 20:13
