Description stupendoussteve 2006-04-22 16:38:01 UTC
Running gotmail-0.8.8 has worked fine since the program was first installed. The behavior was noticed today that instead of downloading email messages as it should, it gives the message "Hotmail's page structure has changed! (redirloc)"

There appears to be a fix at http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1487380&forum_id=335767 - is there any chance of this being tested/put into the ebuild? Adding the lines to gotmail fixed the issue for me. It appears that the upstream is aware of the issue, what I am not sure of is if the fix would break gotmail for some users while fixing for others, as I'm not a perl guru (it appears to be some new MSN rollout or something causing the breakage). :(

Thanks
