hotmail account

[travigne]

hi everyone, my question is how do I set-up a hotmail account,when I configure a mail account opens up IE or Opera and from there a access the mail account. With WM5 didn´t do that, I could access the mail account with in the phone without opening the browser.
When I press the mail funtion it doesn´t show the account I already set-up,in this case, hotmail, it shows it empty(no accounts)
any help with this?
thanks

i had problem with this also. Apparently you can only set up one hotmail account on your phone. If let say you deleted it by accident and try to re-add it will not work, instead it will go through the Windows Live website like you stated.

Only solution to fix this is a hard-reset

did you set up an account before but deleted it afterwards?

I did,t, perhaps the first owner,I got this phone today as second hand, I haven´t done any hard reset because looking through it is pretty much all the memory empty

oo then maybe the owner did set an account before but removed it. If that is the case you will not be able to add a new hotmail account.

My suggestion to you is just do a hardreset, unless there are some things the old owner put in there you might want. If that is the case just plug the USB cable into your computer and copy and paste whatever you want from the phone to your comp as backup

I haven,t done the hard reset because there is no signs of anything being in the memory. When I go to mail function and add new account, I entered the hotmail account and password and then next and shows settings found for hotmail.com,then press next again and goes straight to the browser. I go back to the mail function and again is empty, no account added

Either hard reset or uninstall then reinstall windows live on your phone.

I can do that,but it will still opening mails trough the browser and not as a separate program like it did in WM5?

If you uninstall windows live and reinstall it, then it shouldnt open your mail in an internet browser anymore. Just make sure you have only one hotmail account. The first one will open in the application and if you add others, you will be redirected to the hotmail website.

I just did a hardreset because of touch screen problem. Then I saw this thread, and got my hotmail account working too!
I got the phone from BELL, brand new, but couldn't set up my hotmail accout. It was the same problem: directly go the browser!
Now I love my Diamond even better. It was my gameboy, now it is in business!

i'm having some problems with the hotmail account, somethimes doesnt want to connect through wifi and opens a 3g connection instead..

the easiest way I've found is to simply use the "get xpress mail" function... may or may not work for all, but it is at least a 50-50 shot!

Microsoft's hotmail/live/msn support pop3 now.
U can simply use the outlook by setup a new count such as xx@hotmai.com, and pop3 server as pop3.live.com(maybe, I don't rember), then change the mail address back to xx@hotmail.com.
The second way is using windows live with messenger.

I access two hotmail accounts, just set as normal but it asks the first time for the address put 123@123.com, then it lets you setup pop3 and smtp else it detects the address as live and sends you to the browser. edit the address after and all should be ok. ps details here for pop3
