Incredimail is incredible lol.!!! I love it.   

 You mean you havent heard of it?     Its so fun to use. Its more fun than Outlook or Thunderbird. Youve got pictures, animated chubbicons,(very big and new emtoicons) very cool and cute notifiers, backgrounds, sounds and 3d animated effects. Plus so much more!!

Incredimail is actually a minor adware program.

It will change your homepage and constantly redirect you there on startup. Also, there have been reports of it possibly collecting your email address to send you an "Upgrade to Gold" message.

Quite a few people have said some negative things about it.

From what I am reading, it seems to be mostly safe, as in: Its not reporting valuable information and its not excessively advertising on your computer.

In my personal opinion, Emoticons that are the size are a nuisance...

HI Zylstra


nothing of that sort has happened to me at all. My computer is configured pretty well. And now guess what? I have 3 email clients (OE 6, Mozilla Thunderbird, and Incredimail) and I have configured my free hotmail address to work perfectly in all 3 of them.

I spent a whole lot of time trying to figure out what outgoing server I needed for the free hotmail address, eventually I figured that I didnt need the hotmail one I could use any good outgoing server.
So I hope its ok now.

Hotmail/MSN/LiveMail use an HTTP connection, not SMTP, IMAP, or POP3.

The mail server that you would connect to (after selecting HTTP connection) is:
http://mail.services.live.com/DeltaSync_v1.0.0/sync.aspx

"localhost"    if using the Webmail extension.

Hi there,

Zylstra, the link you provided isnt working. Anyways, In incredimail and OE 6 for my free hotmail account, Im actually using the outgoing server from my account that I got when I signed up with my internet service provider. Im using "localhost" for my incoming server and the outgoing server from the ISP email account. So its working fine, and its much more secure.

What do you mean by adware program? What is adware?
