You might try setting up your account as [email protected] instead. Microsoft has converted most hotmail accounts over to livemail.

that does not work, it still asks me for pop3 or IMAP info..
in the sticky at the top of this page there is a list of cab files. download and install the cab file for windows live. this will allow you to sync your email into the default messaging program for offline reading. if you have unlimited data, you also have the option of getting your mail blackberry style and have it pushed down to your tilt.
When I go to setup my hotmail on my Tilt using the default messaging program, just as I had it on my 8525, it wont let me. Gives me a link to Windows Live's web site. WTF?!?
Same here. Wonder what's up with that. From what I understand, Hotmail does not use standard POP/IMAP mail either, so you can not enter the settings manually.
Go Find the additional CAB files
For some reason, At&T didn't add the windows Live services. Once you install that, Outlook Mobile will let you set up MSN or Hotmail accounts.

hi, i installed windows live and the outlook still does not let me set up my hotmail account as it was in prevous version of wm, is there any way around ?
cudo
you set up your hotmail through the windows live site that it forwards you to then after you have done that you'll see your hotmail account listed in your messages program.
for some resons it does not work for me. i have got windows live installed on my device VARIO III and when i go to messages and setting up new account it forwards me to the windows live website so i go there and all it lets me do is just read my email. once i will sign out and press "finish" new account does not appear in my pocket outlook.
are you sure you are not using hotmail with pop/smtp ?
cheers

when I installed Windows Live software and logged into the software it setup my hotmail account in outlook for me, I never had to go to the add account in outlook. You cannot manually add it because it is supported by windows live software. I would try reinstall windows live and then log in and check your mail once through it. After that you should be able to hit the mail icon on your phone and it take you to hotmail in outlook.
Installing Windows Live from the CAB Sticky Fixed this for me. Thanks for the heads up!
yeah, there was a problem some versions of windows live...the one from the sticky is a fixed version...
ok all is good now. installed the fixed version from the sticky and after having it set up i got my windows live account in outlook
cheers for the pointers
Hello,
I recently upgraded by ATT Treo 750 to Windows Mobile 6 (WM6) and lost the ability to check my Hotmail with Outlook. I have seen a few threads with installing Live, etc but all i want to do is be able to use the Outlook App to check my Hotmail! Has anyone else figured out this one? When you try the setup via Outlook it basically just sends you to IE. Thanks!
hmm well the thing is with live installed it basically gives you push mail for your hotmail without paying for a premium account, i know hotmail used to charge for pop access and such but Im unsure if they still do. When it opens IE when trying to set it up it's most likely a page telling you to set it up in Live as far as I can remember. The only other thing I can think of other than getting live or an exchange account is to see if you can manually input your settings for your hotmail account, assuming that you have pop access to your account though.
ATT did it
Basically, WM6 has the same pocket MSN as WM5 with the Outlook HTTP sync for Hotmail. ATT stripped that function out of WM6...i have been talknig to MS to find out how to re-install it but they are not helping much.
On the TF3D sceen, is there any way to link the mail button to the outlook mail instead of the "internet" mail?
Thanks
Err... If you set up your Outlook mail.. it would work.
If you set up your Outlook Mail and KEEP the Internet Mail (as well), then you will have both of them being accessed from the TF3D mail button (two envelopes on the right, instead of one)
If you set up your Outlook Mail and DELETE the Internet Mail, then you will have one envelope on the right .. and THAT will be the one for Outlook Mail.
To set up your Outlook mail, Tap on TF3D mail button
Then tap on Inbox
Then - Menu - Tools - Options
Now, tap on Outlook E-mail and enter the settings.
I actually tried to configure the Outlook Mail account (time pass) for gmail.
I couldn't get it to work.. (for some reason - sure I did something wrong).
Tried to sync Outlook Mail with my PC using Active Sync... some certificate validity issues came up..
Then, just decided to chuck it.
Had two envelopes appearing on the side.. just went ahead and cleared up everything from the registry - related to the mail set ups and set up my Gmail as the Internet Mail again.
I have set up my Outlook, and as you can see from screenshot, it's got mail in it, however, if I delete my POP3 email, the TF3D screen shows no accounts in the mail screen...
Anyone got any idead how to link the Outlook Inbox to the TF3D Mail screen??
Your email notification icon at the top looks quite suspicious... do you have another email client (such as BB Connect or Intellisync Mobile Suite) installed? I used Intellisync before and this is the icon I received and it also wasnt appearing in TF3D.
Let me know if you are using Intellisync- there is a work-around

It's much better than Outlook Mobile isn't it? Nice to have REAL push mail
The reason TF3D isnt working is because it only recognises Outlook Mobile and not IMS and you do not have an Outlook account setup. The workaround (I'm hoping to find a better way) is to create an Outlook account through Activesync/Mobile Device Center on your PC. I've done some tests and there is no conflict between the two.
The downside is that there is no real integration between TF3D/Outlook and IMS so IMS is essentially working in Parallel. What I am trying to figure out is how to map TF3D to IMS so that when you click the envelope it takes you to IMS and not Outlook. At least with this workaround, you will get the best of both worlds with TF3D showing you your emails and IMS giving you the real push mail functionality which Outlook lacks.
Let me know if it works for you

Excellent. I'm now showing the envelope in the Mail TF3D screen. I presume that with this workaround, all I will ever get is the "Click to view message" message, and not the first few lines of the message that you get with a POP3 account or a proper outlook account. (see attached)
From reading your message I am also guessing you are using version 8 or 9 of IMS. I currently look after 3 servers all using varieties of version 6. I have just created a new server with version 9 which installs the "intellisync" suite of application on the device. I've tried it on an XDA Exec, XDA Orbit (and some nokia and Sony Ericsson devices). I haven't tried it on the Diamond yet. How is it on that?

Correct.
I am using version 9 which works like a charm. I work for the local operator here in Dubai and am currently one of a few internal testers for IMS before we launch it as a service. I find it to be very functional and light on resources- highly highly recommended. Beats all competition including Blackberry (I've also set it up to get a personal POP3 account in much the same way as BB Internet does)
As for how much of the message appears in the TF3D, this depends on how much you tell Outlook to download of the message- all you need is a couple of KBs at the most to get the first few lines in the envelope.
Hey guys
I'm sorry but this will be probably an off-topic and stupid question but when you receive an email on your Diamond does it look like on your pc and can you view emails that have lots of graphics in them ??
I'm really sorry but this is my first WM device and i would like to know things like that
It depends on what kind of email account you are setting up on the device. If it's an Exchange account, the server has to be running Exchange 2007 for you to get HTML email on your device. Internet Email and IMAP display HTML without any problems.
well i've been using maill2web and it just emails didn't look like they should. Maybe you can tell me where can i find a good exchange server or something like that ??

Well... there's many to choose from depending on your needs and budget (not sure of any free ones but you'll probably find some out there- although possibly not because Exchange is not cheap to install or maintain). Anyway a simple Google will give you many results http://www.google.ae/search?hl=en&q=hosted+exchange&meta=
Anyone found the solution yet ?
Noticed the solution to sync to a phony account - But I would really prefer to sort this via a registry tweak or similar.
I need to roll this out to a large number of corporate users, so the phony tweak is kind of hard to roll out compared to a registry modification.
Anyone?...
Its kind of frustrating to see the number of new emails in the notification area of TF3D but not actually being able to use the TF3D envelope function.

Hello,
I tried to find a solution, too. But up to now without success.
Does anyone know, where TF3D gets it's information from?

I also had an intense view at the registry, couldn't find any link to IMS/Outlook key...
I had a phonecall with nokias tac, telling me they will release a patch to solve this problem, not only to see unread mails at the TF3D - to have the original functionality of the tf3d mailicon workin. He could not tell me when the patch
will be released but it WILL come...
...but I'm very sure it could be solved with the correct Regkey...

Sorry to drag up an old thread - I'm currently using Intellisync and would also like to use TF3D to view my emails ...
Did any kind of patch or regedit get released or worked out?
Meanwhile, I'll try the work-around above in this thread if I can work out what to do exactly.
Regards,
Gary.
Any news on this ?
Any sight of that Intellisync patch ?
hi guys/girls
just flashed my hd2 from wm6.5 to android (what a great step)
the problem is ... is there a free app to transfer my contacts from outlook to android
ty.
use the email app and sync with outlook or search the market.
I did use HTC's sync which you can get from the HTC website. worked perfectly.
But I have now changed roms and it doesnt work on hyperdroid, so im using google for my contacts and used this method to get me calander from outlook to google
http://www.google.com/support/calendar/bin/answer.py?answer=89955
just thought id post i found this proggy was the easyest way to xfer my contacts
h**p://w*w.companionlink.com/android/
easy as easyness
ty for the other replys
I use Outlook and I also move from WinMo6.5 to Android. I used to sync my HTC to Outlook too.
But usually I also sync my Outlook to a online service (Hotmail, Google). Which service do you use Outlook with? Because Android can sync directly to most of the services and you won't need Outlook "in the middle".
Cheers.
Export contacts from outlook to Google via .csv. works like a charm.
Sent from my HTC Supersonic. Made by HTC tuned by cyanogen.

Downloaded it and tried it and did not like it at all so I removed it after just one go.
Perhaps I did something wrong but it made me run the program to get access to my contacts.
Did the google way instead and that worked well although now google knows even more about me.

I use Android-sync.
Small free program which syncs with Outlook!
