Hi

I have been searching for Hotmail Access on wap for a while, and at last I found it.

Web - http://mobile.msn.com
Wap - http://mobile.msn.com

There is also a link in MSN messenger 4.6 (Window XP) Tools, Options, Phone, Mobile Device from the menus.

You can configure personal setting on web site. This is US based so all content is US based.

Wap site not brilliant but it lets you get you Email on the move....

You can sign into hotmail? I am only able to get to the front screen and any options that don't require the .net passport sign in.

When I try to sign into mobile.msn.com, I always get an error of unsupported content type. I had heard that the MSN wap page only supports the phone.com minibrowser, which is different than the wap 1.2/2.0 browser included in ericsson phones.

What links EXACTLY do you follow to read your hotmail on wap?

Well I have the Motorola P280 with Voicestream GPRS service, and it uses the Phone.com browser version 4.1.23c. After entering my username and password, I get an error, something like, "Document contains invalid data"

I have no idea what the problem is, I am able to check Yahoo! mail and AOLmail just fine with the P280. Mail on myrealbox.com works well too.

mobile.msn.com is for Pocket PC. i use it everyday.

Hi

I am accessing this site on Nokia 3330 phone with WAP 1.1 browser.

If you log into the web site http://mobile.msn.com you can configure what you mobile device is... Pager, WAP Phone, Pocket PC/PDA.

When you goto http://mobile.msn.com on your phone you get the following ...

1) MSN Mobile menu
2) Select Hotmail (1st option)
3) .Net Passport Sign In menu
4) Select type of email address ie. @hotmail.com
5) Enter email name (@hotmail.com)
6) Enter your password.
7) Hit submit
8 ) Message about being able to personalize content on web site
9 ) Hit next
10) Your in your INBOX
You can new read, write email and access your address book.

it looks like msn overhauled their mobile interface, good. but i can't still login, bad. i get an error that the content is too large, oh well.

btw, it is not an msn problem, because nokia phones can login (sigh). so i'm still stuck with t68 and pocket pc combo.

The content recieved from the origin server was too large.

What does this mean? I can't sign into passport!

look guys/girls....
im seeing all of ure frustration concerning hotmail wap. i was in the same bout only a few days ago, until.....

i discovered this site:

www.mymail.ie

here, you only have to sign up, answer a few question...simple....and then if ure on nokia, it'll send u ure bookmark but otherwise, it states it at the bottom of the 'successful sign-in' screen. easy. it works perfectly. as with all these things though, the email access on the wap is not brilliant cos its nothing to shout about!! well, have fun guys and reply saying what u all thought or if u have ne questions!!

Cool.....Tom

I miss that option too, but it looks like that option is not possible. MSN and other sites in general will have to detect \"multibrowsers\" that suppport WAP 1.2, WAP 2.0 (XHTML) and HTML 4.01 .

hotmail IS available through wap. i can access it on my t68i on orange in the uk.
using the address posted above.
i believe its network/service provider dependant hence the fact some people can get it and others cant.
