POP3 sucks ......... whereas HTTP protocol just ROCKS ........


u can c mail headers & then decide whot 2 download ..... as 4 pop3 it downloads all .......


i think HOTMAIL should STICK 2 HTTP only ..........

You dont have to download all the mails on POP3. You can create rules to download only the headers for mails above a particular size or from some person or anything. It is much more customizable.

Not really! Have a look at softwares like POP-Peeper, Mailwasher, ePrompter, etc. Earlier I used to use mailwasher free edition. But I have multiple accounts and therefore now use POP-peeper regularly.

@alsiladka .... creating rules noway & waste time ...... thats y HTTP ROCKS ! ! !

Ya, just select from the 2 3 default rules for the HTTP and it still rocks. But the ability to make a 100s of different rules for your personal or professional needs is not.

I complete agree with you dude
