msn Hotmail uses a HTTP server, not a POP3 server. In other words, you cannot access your Hotmail on your Sony Ericsson T68i's built-in E-Mail client.

This feature is only available to subscribers to MSN Extra Storage and MSN Internet Service. Look in the help section of Hotmail.

Actually I was looking around for this and here is the MSN extra storage details page and it talks about being able to access other pop3 email using hotmail (like we used to before they decided to charge for it) but there is not mention of being able to access hotmail itself via pop3. Nothing comes up in the hotmail help either about this.

Any links to what you are mentioning Owen?

You are actually right... It doesn't say anything about getting your hotmail messages through pop3. SORRY... I was reading this:

"You may experience problems with your POP account if:

You do not have a subscription account

POP e-mail retrieval is now only available to subscribers of MSN Extra Storage or MSN Internet Service."

Misunderstanding...

There is no POP3 for hotmail. They do not use POP. Its some sorta http link thingy.

if you are talking about MSN, its a totally different issue.

Unfortunately that is not a POP3 server.

a.ASP file type represents an active server page which is part of IIS (Internet Information services) and is essentially a script.

Entering this into a pop3 server address will not help you.
