Can i set my p800 up to recive my hotmail e-mails?
if so how do i go about doing it.
thanks

i just found a exelent site for getting hotmail,msn,yahoo and AOL e-mail acounts on your phone.
sign up to https://www.mymail.ie/ and it is very simple so it wont cost alot to read emails.
tell me what you think. 😉

It looks okay. But assuming hotmail is set up the same as Yahoo, you should just be able to enable it for POP3 access and then set up a messaging account on your P800 to access it through the e-mail client. Have a look around hotmail and see if you can find reference to "POP3". That should tell you how to go about it. Alternatively, try searching on here. 9 times out of ten someone will have already done it and written about it on here. And the search facility is very good.
