About:
Hotwayd is a POP3/SMTP to HTTPMail (WebDAV) gateway. HTTPMail is a somewhat undocumented WebDAV-based protocol used by a variety of mail servers including Hotmail, MSN, Lycos, and Spray. Hotwayd allows you to use any standard POP3/SMTP mail reader to send and receive mail via these servers, similar to the way that Outlook Express can access a hotmail account. It supports features such as folder selection to get folders other than the inbox and proxy server support (if you require a proxy to access the internet).

[»] It's pretty slick!
by Scott Edwards - Sep 2nd 2006 16:08:37

A little searching with google turned up a perfect xinetd.d config. In theory you could use ssh with a forced command in your authroized_keys file and specify the select identity to run hotwayd remotely.

I however decided to install it locally for Mac OS X Mail to use as a pop account. The only short-comming I find is no support for IMAP. It might also be nice for it to see if it's running from a terminal or a socket, and use STDERR to notify the user they might want usage help.

At any rate, thanks for providing it. It'll save me from hotmail's hideous webmail interface! yippie!
