Check your settings for the account.  Mine are :

General Settings: pretty self explanatory

Incoming Server:  server:  pop3.live.com

                                 port:      995

                                username

                               password

Use secure Connection and Verify Certificate checked

 

Outgoing Server:  server:   smtp.live.com

                                  Port:     587

                                   username

                                   password

Use secure  connection and verify certificate checked

 

Other settings: your choice

There is also an app on the market called HOT EMAIL.   I have Hotmail, and it is working fine on my phone.  But the one thing I do not like is that it only gives you the INBOX,......you cannot see any of your other folders.

 

So I downloaded and use the app Hot Email.....it is basically like the browser portal on the desktop scaled to work on the phone.  with this, I am able to utilize all of my folders that I have.
