Got it working! Still uses m.hotmail.com
Just change username to @outlook.com and it should be good!
I logged in using old hotmail account and i changed my email address from msn.com to outlook.
Outlook should send you an email and there's a hyperlink to enable you to amend your email address.
If you need further help i can assist!

Synchronize Hotmail

Hi Guys,
I am running the Phoenix 3.0 Rom based on WM6.5 I believe.
On the boxed rom I could sync with my hotmail account fine. Now with this ROM, any attempt to use hotmail as your email account forces you to use windows live and web interface to your email (horrible).
I got around this issue by using the help from this forum and not putting the word 'hotmail' into the email address and then telling the settings to use pop and smtp servers that are the ones used by hotmail.
However, now I get copies of my hotmail emails to my phone but not a proper sync. ie. I get the same emails on my phone as I do on the web but if i read or delete them on my phone, I still have to do the same on the web. Can anyone tell me a fix for this or am I stuck with having to manage the same emails in both places?
Thanks.

I recommend K-9 mail.
+1 for K9
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
... change sender account while compose!
as suggested, i set K9 as my default mail app now ..tks
but just what i want like Iphone Mail App :
- you have 2 accounts
- you receive mail by account A, read in account A, make un reply/forward in account A but before sending you can change Sending account, use account B for sending (From) ... what we can not do in Windows, either in Androids ...
(I use it always because my corporate mail account don't allow sending mail via 3G or Wifi with unknown IP)
any suggestion else?
thank all,

When you reply to an email in k-9 and want to send the reply from a different account, first hit reply to open the reply and then hit the menu key, then More and then Send as. This will open a list of the accounts that you have set up and allow you to pick the one to send from.
You can also open the settings for an account and under sending mail set up other 'identities' to send from using the manage identities menu item.

[Q] Email Configuration allover the place -PLEASE HELP !

Good Morning,
I currently have several email accounts set up with K9 email but I seem to have a bit of an issue here and there.
I have;
Two Hotmail accounts ; I am receiving emails that come to the Hotmail addresses into both my hotmail account AND into the K9 accounts on my droid. NO ISSUES.
then
One Gmail account which is my business email. I have my @gmail.com configured to forward to my @.customdomain.com. I am receiving all emails sent by people to my K9 account on my Droid but it does not arrive into my outlook . When I send an email to my @custom.domain.com account from my own outlook package, it does arrive back in my outlook inbox . So gmail seems to be routing my own outlook mail ok but not anything coming from third parties via gmail.
I am guessing it is a simple setting but where ? I have all the "delete from server" etc UNCHECKED in the account settings ....
Can anyone shed a light with what info I have given >??
thanks very much
Ok may be when k9 gets updated it sets email as already poped or read to your domain that's why outlook doesn't retrieve them. But when you send them through outlook may be due to internal routing it comes to your inbox and not through server. Try this deconfigure your k9 and see if it pops in outlook or set outlook to retrieve all mail read unread deleted poped. I don't know how.

Problem when adding a hotmail email

Hi there, i am trying to add a hotmail account to my galaxy tab and when i use the automatic setup all i get is ms exchange and i dont want that i already have another hotmail account that i have added before and it worked well ot added a normal pop account, now i tried to copy the settings for the ingoing and the outgoing server and use them, but it always gives me 'could not connect to server' when setting the outgoing mail. Any thoughts why it is doing that? I just want to have a normal pop account just like the other hotmail that i have.
P.s: i know that there is a hotmail app but i dont like it and id really like to use the phones email.
Thanks!
