    read the past reviews dude... we all want hotmail and msn... but apparently its just aol... as for the hotmail issue, u can rely on other software to do what u want it to do.. but its a pain in da ***


    however if u want hotmail and msn to function great on ur ht2, then u need a dev key and u can put the software onto ur phone .... only getting a dev key is NOT EASY

    try using the browser and going to www.e-messenger.com its a site where u can access MSN AOL and YAHOO via the site and chat. It does take a while for the msges to get through, but it is better than nothing!

    For $10.95 a year, you can have your hotmail "automatically" sent to your SK2. Izysoft has a server set up for that purpose. The service is named "Izymail". I know two people who use it for Hotmail on their SK2 with no problems.

    Scroll down to "Izymail Online" at the link below:

    im in the process of getting a dev. key... but thats off topic.. you can only get your hotmail/msn mail if you use the browser. i rather not check my msn mail with my phone its a ***** just trying to get pass all the redirecting links. i wouldnt mind it if dangers web servers were a little faster or at least have msn/hotmail preinstalled on the phone. maybe i can try this if i can get the dev. key

    Hotmail and Tmobile have a history of not being able to work together. I see this with Blackberry's everyday. I have no idea why.

    It's not a Sidekick II. It's a Saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa'kik

    try is

    I just found this program that allows you to get your hotmail forward to you for free. But you just have to have running 247 on a computer... just type in Getmail in google and it should come up
    If you like it, I love it

    I check my hotmail email all of the time on my CSK. I had to set it up as a PDA device or something (I don't remember too well because it was a while ago). I only had to do that one, but now I can check it fine through the web browser. MSN Messenger, well that's another story..... I haven't been able to use that one, but I'm going to try e-messenger and see what that's about.

    I also got my Sidekick to receive my corporate email aslo.

    The process is a little involved and requires me to leave Outlook running on my PC at work, but it works great

    It's pretty simple. Once you install it, a little icon will appear in the system tray area. Right click on it and select "Mail Settings", enter you Hotmail account info and then in the "Forward to:" section put your Sidekick mail address (i.e. username@tmail.com). Use the slider to indicate how often you want the program to poll for new messages. Click the "Check for New Mail" button and you should see the status in the little window
