Is this version of pocket hotmail working for anyone else? I can't get it to fetch.

I just downloaded it myself...

I had the trial of HTTPmail, and it worked great, but I'm too cheap for $5 right now, and my trial was coming up, so I decided to go with this Beta which seemingly has no time limit (for now anyways). I had 2 hotmail accounts set up in HTTPmail and they worked, but when I uninstalled it, I deleted the accounts and tried to remake them aftewards.

Now, when I make a new account, it works, but it doesn't show up in the list, and then when I try to recreate it, it says it already exists.

Anyone know where in the Registry these are found so I can remove them or how to fix this problem?

Like the Yahoo app that was floating around, this app is developed by a third party.

Obviously, people are free to make their own decisions, but I advise caution when using 3rd party apps for something as potentially sensitive as email, and IM.

The program may be harmless and legit, but it may also be a stealth scheme to harvest userid and password information.

Basically, use at your own risk. (I choose not to take the risk)
