Use Yahoo's POP3 mail. If you want it in English and free, go to
http://www.yahoo.co.uk

Once you've set up the account, be sure to configure it for POP3 or it
won't work in any email program.

You could try the newer Windows Live Mail (it's still a beta though), and
convert your hotmail to the new Hotmail Live (you can always convert back).
These two sync quite well.

reading.
