AppleScript to fetch Hotmail in Mail.app
Jussar Interactive has created an AppleScript that will retrieve messages from a Hotmail account into Mail.app.
It does this using the open source MrPostman software 
to drag down the mail.
Unlike some other utilities for retrieving email from web-based services, Mail to Fetch promises to work with Intel Macs.
The script is available from MacUpdate and installation instructions from the developer’s web site .
I haven’t tested this. I’d be glad to hear if it works.
UPDATE: The author has updated this script to fix a significant problem that could occur after reoot. (28 June 2006)

I just tried it out and it works great. You have to run the AppleScript application before you try to set up the account. Also, read the developer’s instructions carefully; I had to go back and reread them a couple of times before I got it working.

Thanks for the feedback. Into the plugins and addons list it goes then!
