It is possible that you're stuck with using the MSN Explorer
to get the MSN email. (@msn.com)
But I just Googled ""msn email"+mozilla" and had what look
like some promising hits. Also reversed and used mozilla+msn
mail and got slightly different hits.
I did find this
http://mozilla.gunnars.net/mozfaq_use.html#access_msn_mail
a.. How can I use Mozilla to access (i.e. send and receive
email from) my MSN account?
A prerequisite for using MSN email with Mozilla is that you
need to have a paid MSN account, i.e. you either use them as
your Internet Service Provider (ISP) or you subscribe to MSN
as an add-on to your regular Internet Service (many Cable
providers offer MSN on top of their Internet Access). If you
only use MSN'S free services, you will need a third-party
program like e.g. Hotpopper to access your MSN email with
Mozilla.
If you do subscribe to MSN, you will need to use Mozilla
1.7b or up since older versions do not support MSN
authentication. Please consult MSN's help pages for the
correct server settings and you should be able to use your
MSN email account with Mozilla Mail.
Good luck
