Gotmail 0.8.9 Released!

April 23, 2006 - The Gotmail project, a perl script which downloads mail 
from hotmail.com without user interaction, released version 0.8.9 
today. This release fixes the hotmail redirect error people were getting with 
version 0.8.8.

In the future, the Gotmail Project looks to add support for the new Hotmail
beta which uses AJAX technology and a refined interface to provide a better
user experience. The project seeks developers who might be interested in 
submitting code to become compatible with this new service.

Another feature that is desired by the development community is integration 
with other applications, such as Novell's Evolution e-mail client 
(http://www.gnome.org/projects/evolution). Already included in this release is
a simple script for transporting one's hotmail into evolution. What would 
make for a strong feature is to develop a plugin which directly uses 
gotmail to check one's hotmail account from within Evolution.

The Gotmail development community thrives off of users of the script, and ask 
for people to visit http://gotmail.sf.net/ to test out the latest version,
file bug reports, and join the development process.

Itemized list of major changes:

    * applied cageek's patch to fix 0.8.8's error:
