View Full Version : Multiple mail accounts, HOW?

I have two premium (paid) Hotmail accounts, and two POP that I need to access regularly.

AFAIK, Pocket MSN can only do one Hotmail account simultaneously (without having to switch accounts).

Is there an easy way to access them all easily (a la Blackberry). I'm no even asking for Push here (which is seriously advertised everytime I reset my x7500 but does not work). :(

I also tried Windows Live. Apparently this "state of the art just out of beta" thing asks you to switch between hotmails accounts too.

Sorry for whining, but this is all SO easy on a Blackberry... But at the same time Blackberries are ridiculously limited devices on other aspects compared to WM ones.

Having this working on WM is a must for business users.

Thanks for any help!

Pocket MSN allows you to login to only ONE hotmail account at a time but several POP3 ones.

In Blackberry land you can have several Hotmail AND several POP3 accounts at the same time (not to mention pushed to your device almost in real time) with only one login. You get ALL you emails from every account in one shot (specially Hotmail and MSN)

I was looking for something similar with the x7500.

While we're at it. Can anyone, already using the new 'Windows Live Mail' on his Athena, confirm if this one will allow this? PocketMSN clearly does not.

I could never get Pocket MSN to work, so use the HTTPMail Provider for my Hotmail email. I think you can do more than one account with it. More details here: http://kripster.blogspot.com/2007/04/accessing-msn-mail-on-pocket-pc.html
