afaik gotmail downloads mail from hotmail and pushes it either to a smtp
server or saves it in the user's maildir/mbox file. on the other hand,
this HotWayd seems to act as a pop3 server, so that in mozilla-mail, or
evolution yu'll specify the pop3 server as localhost and run HotWayd in
the background, something like YahooPOPs on windows, but seems better
than that.

atleast it can installed on one server, and all the clients can connect
to it and download mails on their individual machines whether it is
windows or linux, and outlook/mozilla-mail/evolution/kmail/balsa
whatever pop3 reader.
