Only ever used hotmail really & to be honest its not that bad
But, you can't have emails from hotmail addys forwarded to your phone & I'd like to be able to do it
I know gmail can do this but are there any others? I'd imagine CS webmail can do it too but I get a lot of spam through CS

OK just cleared out my CS inbox. Is there a spam filter type thing ? Can't find one?
How would I go about setting this up with my phone?
Also how do I setup outlook?
If you hadn't already noticed this is a n00b alert

We run a spam filter (both heuristic scanning, blacklisting, and greylisting) and mark all spam with "SPAM:" at the beginning. If you want this automatically deleted you can set the purge option in Premium Services. I personally get a couple spam a day, but they're always marked as such (and so Outlook automatically puts them in my Junk Mail folder).
To use POP3 on your phone it's exactly the same settings as Outlook. Just use the settings it gives you on the Prem Services page.
For the outgoing SMTP server, however, you'll need to use the appropriate server for your ISP (or phone provider).

Right, that makes sense. I've found that spam thingy in premium services & ticked the box
So if I put my CS details into outlook I can read them through that? Doesn't involve me logging into CS at all?
What do you use Timmay?

So incoming mail is mail.corsasport.co.uk?
Whats the SMTP? In prem bit it says your ISP's outgoing something or other
Don't know what that means

Heres another question - If Gmail is getting Pop 3'd to my outlook, can I still have it Pop 3'ing to my phone?
The network supports push email so when I get an email my phone goes off right that second.
I know on the gmail site it says you can log in & check them, but thats more hassle
Anyone know what Im on about?
