Hotmail Advice Required

[Boddie]

I am trying to put Hotmail onto an Ipod Touch but its asking for incoming mail server and outgoing mail server details.

Anyone got any ideas?

[DaiTheDragon]

try this
POP hotmail.com
SMTP Hotmail. com
There might be a full stop after pop and smtp.

Hotmail Settings

As other web based email services, Hotmail is using the HTTP protocol for connecting you to your mailbox. If you want to send and receive Hotmail emails using an email client software, then your software must support Hotmail HTTP access for your email account. Some email clients, such as Outlook Express or Microsoft Outlook, offer builtin support for Hotmail accounts, so you only have to select HTTP when you are asked to select your email account type and select Hotmail as the HTTP Mail Service Provider.

Hope this helps.

Sounds good mate.
At the risk of sounding excessively thick, what is an iTouch??

Its an Ipod with touch screen which allows you to connect to the internet.

It has a web browser and mail options, but of course you need to be near a router or WiFi

The company bought me one for passing recertification this week, pre-loaded with videos of surgical procedures, so I can talk my surgeons through my technologies.

Its a super bit of kit

... and of course you can get WAB on it too
