Problem is that you would have to leave your PC switched on with WM open 24/7. WM would reply to every message, including Spam mails, thus advertising your account as live for more and more spam! One connection problem and the system would await human input to cancel the error message. So not a good idea imho? Forget about it using WM. Explore the website of your ISP or Mail Provider, they sometimes offer this option?
