Email clients and working email

[Haemoglobin]

Hey everyone


Aside from logging on to gmail or hotmail via a browser, is it possible to have email via a email client? Up until recently the default mail client in 10.5.8 was working fine, but now it will not connect to hotmails imap server.

The Mail app on Leopard will still work with iCloud email if you use an app specific password. That is about it though

I recall you mentioning this in another thread. Can you post a link for Gyuzmail? It isn't coming up in a search.

EDIT: I found it- https://gyazsquare.com/gyazmail/

What version do you use? According to the website, the current version 1.7.1 is supported in 10.6 and above.

Here's how to create app-specific passwords:

Sign in to apps with your Apple Account using app-specific passwords - Apple Support

App-specific passwords allow you to securely use your Apple Account to sign in to apps made by developers other than Apple.

Hey guys, thanks for the replies, it's been much appreciated. Going to give them all a shot, if i can regain access to hotmail without logging in via a browser, that would be great.
