thanks for your help guys but I don't intend to pay for this when other email accounts do this for free and I don't intend to set-up another email account just so that I can use it on my phone especially when i have had my hotmail for years, so if hotmail don't use this facility, then i will just have to put up with it or wait or tell them to get with the times and not charge!
But thanks all the same guys for your help
Jamie
