Hi all,

I have multiple hotmail accounts. How can I configure these in gotmail config file? It seems only to support a single account. Is this true?

Cheers,

I replaced my gotmail setup with hotwayd, which can check multiple HoTMaiL accounts.

To check multiple accounts I have gotmail setup to run via cronjobs that specify different config files.

My contab file:
Code:

 0 * * * * gotmail -c ~/.gotmailrc_account_1
30 * * * * gotmail -c ~/.gotmailrc_account_2

This will check my account #1 every hour on the hour, and check my account #2 every hour on the half hour.

Geeez, you've definitely ressurected a long dead thread. :-)
Thanks for the tip even though I use gmail nowadays.
