I've been wondering for awhile now if it's possible to recieve hotmail and yahoo mail through Outlook. Anyone ever try this before?
 
Yes, depending on what version of Outlook. Some will let you connect to HTTP (server type for Hotmail). I assume Yahoo uses the same.

outlook works with hotmail very well, and it's easy to setup.

with yahoo.com, I think you need a few more bits of information that I had hard time finding to get it to work (I wasn't ever able to get it working properly with yahoo)

yahoo requires a program called yahoopops.

works well with hotmail, i never had much luck with yahoo. it would work about 80% of the time maybe?

i never even go to hotmail webpage. always through outlook/outlook express. it's a whole lot easier.

yahoopops always works for me. there was once this buggy release (more than a year ago) that they have which intermittenly not working and i had to downgrade to an older version, but after the next release came out it's very reliable.
 
Is it possible to type letters like G-O-O-G-L-E and have it take you magically to a place to search for answers?
