Hi, im stuck at mo trying to use my n70, im on o2 network and carnt log on to msn or my bank & dont no how to set it up 4 my hotmail emails,can any one help????????????

Try to order the correct O2 settings (if the phone doesn't already have them) from http://www.europe.nokia.com/nokia/0,,71993,00.html or by using the "Settings Wizard" app, which (if it isn't preinstalled) you can download from http://www.europe.nokia.com/nokia/0,,77767,00.html

Then depending on your bank's services, connect to them with the built-in browser either using the "WAP Access Point" or "Internet Access Point" settings (you can define them per bookmark or as a default for the whole browser).

If neither works, you can try an additional browser like Opera, in case it works better:

As to MSN/Hotmail, Microsoft in their infinite wisdom does not support so called Internet standard email protocols, which means SMTP for sending and POP3 or IMAP4 for receiving/retrieving email.

These are what the built-in Messaging app supports. You can try to find another email provider with SMTP and POP3/IMAP4 support (e.g. GMail by Google, for example, or possibly some email service that supports Internet standards, but connects to MSN/Hotmail through Microsoft's proprietary means).

Or, if it is enough, you can try the WAP user interface to Hotmail by using the phone's browser and connecting through http://mobile.msn.com/wml

Then get also the latest PC Suite from http://www.nokia.com/pcsuite (if you have a PC and run Windows 2000 or Windows XP). With it you can synchronize your contacts/calendar with Outlook/Lotus Notes, backup your phone, transfer images and other files to/from the phone, install phone apps you've downloaded to your PC, etc.

I'm using the built-in eMail client on my n70 to connect to my Yahoo email account.

Get a Yahoo account for 19.99 a year, you can't beat it. And the new Java interface on my PC looks and functions just like Outlook.
