Now that Im at a computer i can explain hotmail popper a little better.

First off, this is not a good way to check email if you: are on 56k, don't know about port forwarding (for those with routers), static or dynamic ip's.

This method requires your computer to be on and connected to the net. Also you must have a static IP or dynamic dns running on your comp. (see http://www.dyndns.org for all you dynamic ip users out there) Now download and install the program. Then you simply need to fill out your hotmail info. By default the ip is set to 127.0.0.1. This will need to be changed in order to check via cell phone if you have a router.

For users behind routers:

If you are behind a router you need to put the ip addy your router assigns you (i.e. 192.168.0.1) and then forward ports 110 and 25 to your Computers IP.


For users with a hub or direct connection to the net:

Leave the ip at 127.0.0.1! (yes it is that easy)


So now that is set up. Time to configure your phones email client.
Setting up everything is easy

Connect Using: GRPS or what ever you have
Protocol: POP3
Incoming Server: Those of you NOT behind a router or that have a DYNDNS account use your IP address or DYNDNS name (if applies). Those behind a router need to find the routers IP and use that.
Incoming Port: 110
Outgoing Server: same as incoming Server
Outgoing Port: 25

For those with T610/6's Mailbox=email addy /Password=password for hotmail/ email address=email addy again


BTW:

This allows you to store emails on your phone for later checking without using wap connection.

Note: it does use up memory, like a TM.

I recomend for those users who save emails in other folders to leave the settings on the popper to only check the inbox. otherwise you will be downloading every email ever saved.

Seems great!
Got some questions though;
What about the 'Proxy Server Configuration' in Hotmail Popper?
Which port should it be?
Adress? --> emailadress?

Hi,

I've tried hotmail popper but no luck. I'm on T-Mobile UK using their GPRS, all settings as you have. Can anyone help? I get as far as "finding server" and thats it!

Cheers...

Fantastic arrangement, but gosh, why not just get a real POP3 email account? Why be so attached to a spam magnet?
