Description Robert S 2007-08-21 10:02:49 UTC

Gotmail does not download messages any longer.

Fortunately there is a fix that works - see https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=4475479

On line 814 of /usr/bin/gotmail, change http://www.hotmail.com to http://hotmail.msn.com in the script.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
$ /usr/bin/gotmail
Page doesn't contain any form action field!
$

I think the longer-term solution would be to use the new GetLive instead of GotMail.

net-mail/gotmail was removed from the tree.
