Yes - I heard (via newsgroups) that some old accounts were allowed, and I must
be in that category because at work OE can access my two Hotmail accounts. The
newsgroup posts claimed that one reason the OE access was removed for newer
accounts was spam abuse.

Ahh - thanks. I'll investigate.

OK - I might break down and pay. I use two accounts - one slightly serious, and
one for mailing lists, so I'll have to find out what "linked to a paid one"
involves.

Thanks for your other pointers too - I'll investigate.
