Hotmail is a web based POP3 service, why would you want to use it with Exchange active sync which is for Microsoft exchange email account !??

add it as a normal email account and it will just work !

Well because MS have started rolling out hotmail with Activesync support so you have full push mail and contact syncing thats why i want to install.

what a stupid question to ask - because he like millions of other people want push email with hotmail on android, thats why.

you cant get exchange activesync yet, microsoft are planning to implement exchange activesync support within the next month as part of windows live mail wave 4.

no they started and have nearly completed the rollout of wave 4 accounts, but exchange activesync is not included in this roll out. It was made available as some sort of test last month for about 2 days. They say they will be starting a separate roll out of exchange activesync later on this summer, so im guessing this month.

That would explain why i could never get it to work with my wave 4 account, cheers for the info.

Apparently this has been activated for all now. Has anyone got it running? Apparently there are issues specifically with the Desire's Exchange client (which kinda sucks). Touchdown works, but is a paid for app (I think).

Apparently some limited successes with the stock android email app on 2.2 roms- I haven't baked it in myself to test but no success so far using the HTC client sadly.

So is it possible to select some options in the r8 kitchen to get this to work? Android messaging etc?

I could not get it to work the the sense mail app, Installed the stock mail app and it works fine in that, Needs to be set up manually I think tho, Not sure if im allowed to post the apk for the mail app?

Installed it manually or via a kitchen bake? Please PM me the link if it's not any trouble (assuming that's allowed!)

I have tried a few stock mail apps with no luck. I think the stock android mail app is classed as open source? If so it shouldn't be a problem.

Further to this, can someone post a link to the stock android mail app?

EDIT: Nevermind. I lifted the one out of the Desire CyanogenMod. Works marvellously.
