Hotmail Email Settings

I want to setup my Hotmail account via Incredimal so i have all my important email addresses in one place.

What i want to know is, is there a way to stop all emails thats currently there from being downloaded and just allow the emails from now on to come down. Google has this feature but i cannot see it on the Hotmail settings.

Thanks

I think you'll find that's due to people having easily guessable passwords. There's nothing inherently insecure about Hotmail itself.

Re: Hotmail Email Settings

Not just passwords.. It's targeted by a lot of malware since it's popular days.

@Chris. google has a "Download since" option, has hotmail got the same?

Re: Hotmail Email Settings

Not sure but doesn;t the pop client use the info provided by the UIDL command to check if there's any messages to download? Surely the the client will keep track of the last message downloaded.. so perhaps it's somewhere you can change it?.. Never used that client so sorry can;t help any further
