Then I must be 'old-school' too. I use Tbird to pull down email from 3
gmail accounts, 2 hotmail accounts, and, uh, yeah, one cox.net account.
The only problem I run into is that hotmail keeps threatening to delete
my accounts because I don't 'log-in'.

OK. I've followed this LIST for years.
I am still confused about EMAIL.
I know who my current ISP is. I know that they pass EMAIL off to;
Yahoo.com. I know that Yahoo.com has their 'own' restrictions.
ISP: Bellsouth.net
Upstream: ATT.net (???)
Mail provider: Yahoo.com
I only do EMAIL via [what I believe is] a local EMAIL client,
Thunderbird. I think this is now "Eudora" of my past. "Eudora" does
NOT work locally any longer anyway.
I do not like to do EMAIL via WEB PORTAL's. This LIST has convinced me
of a variety of security-related reasons to believe what I now believe.
Am I still very "Old-School?"
Best,
