Depends what you are after! If you just want to receive push email on your phone and don't want your desktop Outlook to synchronise with exchange and don't mind emails sent from your phone originating from @mail2web.com then you just need to sign up for the free Live service.

When you have signed up go to the control panel if you can find it - I found the mail2web website to be one of the worse designed sites I have used in a long time. Basically login to the live account, but I always had to go through the email login which tells you your account is a live account and transfers you to the correct login. Then go to activesync in control panel which gives you the option of downloading a cab file to your PC or SMSing it to your device. Download, install and off you go.

How dows push email work?

I have a blackberry at the moment and want to get rid of it and have email coming through my spv m600. I understand some sites are doing it for free but do I still have to pay for the GPRS ?

Any help will be much appreciated

Yeah, you do have to pay the data charges. Push uses activesync on the phone to keep your phone synchronised with a remote server. The server receives your email then pushes it to your phone. Everything you normally sync using activesync, like contacts, calendars and tasks is also kept in sync, i.e. you can add an entry on a PC using the web interface and it will be updated on your phone or vice versa. If you use one of the pay services you can also synchronise desktop Outlook with the remote server.

Just a heads up, you mangled your URL (put http:// in and then http: so the forum reformats the url as http://http.com), here's the correct URL for those (like me) who were initially a little puzzled:
