I use fetchmail to fetch emails from any POP3 account. Since Gmail support POP3 (you need to enable it), I can fetch it use the following command:
poll pop.gmail.com proto pop3 and options no dns
user 'myemail@gmail.com' there with password 'mypassword' is myforwardemail@localemail.com options ssl
Hotmail is a little bit trickier, because it is a HTTP based email.
To Fetch Hotmail, I use GetLive:
Before you set GetLive, make sure you set your 'reading pane' to off in your Hotmail setting
Get GetLive from the Internet (just Google it)
Create a config file (getlive.conf):
UserName=myusername
Password=mypassword
Domain=hotmail.com
Downloaded=/var/log/getlive.log
processor=sendmail -i myforwardemail@localemail.com
Delete=Yes
Folder=Inbox
mode=200810
and create a cron job to execute:
GetLive.pl --config-file getlive.conf
