E-mail from Hotmail accounts

Hey Techie-guys (or girls, this is the 21st Century) :wink:

Can someone who knows a lot more than me tell me if it's possible to access hotmail accounts from the spv. We've got MSN so I'm guessing it's possible.

Is it something to do with POP3 or that other form of e-mail account??

Any help would be welcome,

cheers

:D

hi. it`s not a pop3 account on hotmail and msn. only a html-server.

you can only check your mailbox in outlook-express or any Html-Browser.

There is a mobile version of hotmail which uses smaller screens. Have a search on this site. I could be nice and find it for you but I'm getting bored or answering the same questions over and over again. Can everyone please have a search on this site before posting "new" questions? Please?

OK rant over and I'm feeling nice so here it is:

Slightly more on topic...:D if you sign up for msn 8 (:/), i seem to remember reading that this allows pop3 access to ur hotmail account...

again, try a forum search...

Nah it doesn't :-( Think it used to, but not anymore.

So to be slightly more helpful (and slightly less angry than my last post ;-)):

You can't have pop3 access to Hotmail, so that means you can't easily get the e-mail counter to show the number of e-mails in your hotmail account :-( but you can view it through Internet Explorer by going to:

why does anyone use hotmail for anything more than msn messenger anyway? really is no need for it now with spv having mobile e-mail access :D

Had my hotmail address for years and don't wanna go through the hassle of changing it. I ocassionally get an e-mail from an old mate I've lost contact with just cause they've kept my e-mail address.

Hotmail ain't great, but I've had it for a while, so I'll stick with it.

Hotmail's pretty good I reckon for what it is.. POP3 they have indeed, but is a PAID service, something like 20 bucks a year....

Posted

You sure about that? I'd pay if it was, but someone else posted that it wasn't.

I was pretty sure actually!! But now I don't know. Checked their websitwe and it seems it has become an MSN8 service.. Email them?
