Hotmail provides some sort of totally proprietary, unpublished HTTP
interface to its mail system, which Outlook Express understands.  It's hokey
and slow and not very flexible, but that's all there is.  I suppose Hotmail
wants to force you to see advertisements or something when accessing the
servers (otherwise, since Hotmail is free, it's hard to see how they would
generate any revenue).
