Hello PerformanceHeads,

i have been searching for a solution on getting beyond the POP
settings since they only showed my inbox

and i have several maps that are in my opinion structured.
The normal settings for just getting inbox are described :

Hotmail on iPad

Microsoft has enabled POP access for all Hotmail accounts, so accessing Hotmail on your iPad is very easy. Trying to set up hotmail.

If you are having problems setting it up, here is the manual settings.

Use @hotmail.com, @hotmail.co.uk or @live.com as part of your username

Incoming Mail Server
Host Name: pop3.live.com
User Name: ***@hotmail.com

Outgoing Mail Server
SMTP: smtp.live.com

The advanced settings

Delete Messages
Remove: After one week

Incoming Setting
Use SSL: ON
Authentication: Password
Delete from server: Never
Server Port: 995

But as said this didnt fit the bill since i only could see my inbox. So how could i access to all my folders from my ipad? And get push mail as an extra bonus ?
This will be shown in the next steps

First you select the mail contact agenda and choose microsoft exchange.

Fill in the server name m.hotmail.com , this will unlock imap features so you will have your contacts agenda and dustbin ;-) available.

After verifying your newly made account will show up and will even have pushmail!
