Hotmail ActiveSync

I am having trouble with synchronising Hotmail account via ActiveSync on my W995. There was a big hype on the web around August 2010 all about Hotmail now finally allowing synchro..
Everytime I try to sync with my account, I get "Session failed, communication error. Check settings". Options > Status shows "HTTP Status: 503".
Here's my setup as recommended by many websites (I believe it works on another manufacturers phones)

server addr: http://m.hotmail.com
domain: (leave blank)
username: (myusername@hotmail.com)
password: (my hotmail password)

Applications: email only checked, secure conn off, enable local conn & internet settings definitely good.
Internet is working, username and password are definitely good also.

Hotmail works fine for me via POP3/SMTP, but I really need push e-mail.
Anyone got good config / guidance? Anyone with Symbian or Android device got different settings?

Hi Dresik,

I have the same problem with my w995. Did you manage to get it right since October? Would be happy to hear from you!
