Not that I know of. Does Hotmail still support POP these days? AFAIK, the
Hotmail support in Windows Mobile is not POP-based.

And if it's not POP-based, how can I get Hotmail on my phone?

If you have POP access to Hotmail, it should work. I'm just saying many
don't, because POP retrieval requires a subscription fee- free Hotmail
users don't have it.

Microsoft has included a Windows Live Mail program (it used to be called
Pocket MSN, IIRC) that's preinstalled on many devices.

It configures the Inbox/Messaging by adding a "Hotmail" account via some
sort of add-in, I assume, much like the "Outlook Connector" does for
Outlook on the PC, and supports Hotmail push supposedly.

If your device doesn't have Windows Live, it'll be available here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/mobile/wl/download-en-us.mspx
...in a week or two.


In the meantime, you can get your Hotmail in the device browser at MSN
Mobile (m.msn.com), I expect.

I may be totally off the ball here, but if he can you can recieve you mail
then pop is working fine, the issue with sending mail is probably nothing to
do with the hotmail account. Find out the SMTP details of whatever service
provider you are using and enter them for outgoing, you e-mails will still
appear as if they are from the hotmail account but they will simply be sent
through the service providers SMTP gateway.

Hope this helps
