Hi there,

I can find heaps of stuff regarding how to use Mbox etc to receive my hotmail emails etc on the Iphone but can somebody please tell me if I am able to get my ISP email account on my Iphone without having to purchase a service from Mbox or similar? Will this be the same problem that I would experience with hotmail or is it different.

I don't own an Iphone but i will be purchasing the I4 in a few wks and I'm just trying to get my head around a few things.

Thanks very much

This is not an issue anymore, Microsoft now has Hotmail working on the EAS standard so you can setup your Hotmail on your phone as an exchange connection and it works beautifully. I had mbox mail and was so happy to get rid of that, mbox mail should be out of business soon.
