Hi all
Sorry for daft question.
Just installed oxygen 2.2.2 ( first rom I have installed )
Just having a little trouble setting up my hotmail, probably me,
Keeps saying unable to connect with server, Chech settings.
Just done same as when I was on stock Tom
Pop 3 and password etc

Any advice would be very much appreciated

Thanks again
 
Instead of using POP I find it better to forward all my hotmail to a gmail account. That way I get push notifications from the Gmail app.

You can set your Gmail account to send through the @hotmail.com email address so replying to emails still appears from your hotmail address to the recipient.

Try changing the server port to 587 instead of 25 in "Outgoing Settings".

I advise you to take a look at the following guide which gives you more detail:
My HTC Desire HOW TO: Setup Hotmail Emails On Your HTC Desire

I used this guide to set up my hotmail account.
