Right, I just a Gmail account. Now I use Hotmail everyday (don't use Outlook Express, I use the online webmail)

Now I have Gmail I wouldn't mind using it more, so have 2 questions.

Since I have Hotmail as my homepage (so I can log in straight away) can you add and programme buttons on the IE browser so I can click one to go straight to Gmail? I know I can just save as a book mark, but what would be cool is if, like I use the "HOME" button to get to Hotmail) I could have a button for Gmail....

Secondly - is there a way I can have mail delivered to my hotmail account (as various forums, newsletters, mailing lists, ebay, paypal etc is all using the hotmail address) sent on to my new Gmail? I have a couple of Pop3 accounts already that when someone sends an email to those addresses they just go to Hotmail... Is it possible to have my Hotmail mail forwarded to my Gmail account?

Thanks
