Update: This little tricks seems to only work for incoming mail but outgoing messages don’t send. 

So if your a new BlackBerry owner and eager to put your Hotmail account on your new berry you may notice its not easy. A member over at HowardForums has found a way to enable Hotmail for free! Usually Microsoft makes you pay for IMAP/POP access. Give this a try:

  1. Download the Windows Live software at windowslive.com
  2. Login to the software to access your inbox
  3. Press Tools
  4. Click Options
  5. Select the Advanced tab
  6. Look for Maintenance
  7. Under Troubleshooting click POP, IMAP and HTTP
  8. Press close
  9. Then go login to BlackBerry Internet Service and add your hotmail account

It should be a success! Let us know if it worked for you…

    i can send but not reviece emails

    My Hotmail account is hooked up to my Blackberry fine.
    However every day when I turn on my laptop and try to sign in to Hotmail, it has locked me out – for too many attempts with an incorrect password.
    ?
    But the password info on my Blackberry and computer are both correct. I never have any problems accessing my emails on the Blackberry.
    And after a few attempts / page refreshes the computer lets me in to my Inbox!
    Some weird stuff going on with Hotmail.

    You’re = as in “You Are”

    Not Your = as in “Belonging to You”

    Jeezus people! It’s the darn English language!

    How did we ever lose simple grammar school skills???

  • DonaldTrump

    And I’m not even talking about the guy who “revieces” email…god…

  • Casey

    Hey Donald, you know that “God” should be capitalized, right? Nobody likes you.

  • Jack the blackberry n00b

    Can someone help me, I don’t know how to set up my e-mail this way :) Is there a way to do it through your BB browser?

    Is that grammatically correct for you, Donald? I even capitalised your name for you, how nice of me.

  • Steph

    I followed your steps about connecting hotmail to my blackberry but there is no “maintenance” option under the advance tab. Any suggestions? I really don’t want to enter all the stuff from my calender into a yahoo calender.

  • Nick

    When I go to windowslive.com and it says download software it just goes straight into my online inbox, there is no software to actually download.
    so there is no point, I may aswell just point my browser to hotmail.com

    I have however just added my hotmail email address to the standard BB email client and works that way, but I would love an app specifically for hotmail as Google has.

    Hi, I found this blog post while searching for help with JavaScript. I’ve recently changed browsers from Safari to Microsoft Internet Explorer 5. Just recently I seem to have a problem with loading JavaScript. Every time I go on a website that requires Javascript, the page doesn’t load and I get a “runtime error javascript.JSException: Unknown name”. I cannot seem to find out how to fix the problem. Any aid is greatly appreciated! Thanks
