How do i set up full hotmail email on Nokia 6220 Classic

Options
Ok so i set up my email with this......

http://dailymobile.se/2009/03/17/how...ur-phone-pop3/

It seems to work fine but it only comes in text message form which makes some of them unreadable, so just wondering are there any programs that will alert me like a text message but the email will actually appear like it does on a computer, i.e with pictures and stuff?

Would this do the trick?

    Hotmail hadn't used to be pop3 by default. It was a changeable addon (about 20 quid a year).
    I don't know if that's changed as I haven't had to set one up in a while, but might be worth checking?

    As per my response on whatever other forum it was I replied to you, Nokia's built in email client does not support HTML, so you will over ever see the text. You need to click on the attachment link to see the HTML content in a browser window (if there is an attachment link).

    This is why HTML e-mail is not such a good idea! It looks wonderful to the guy sending it on his PC with flashing italics and stuff; but not quite so marvelous to some poor sod trying to decipher it on a tiny phone screen.

    You're lucky I can't get PAYG O2 comms to work *at all* on the 6220C I bought this week.

    Unrelated but here's a tip - if you use the "animation" clock screensaver (the classy white on black analog clock that appears when you set a theme) then it is completely useless because as soon as it comes on the phone anyway blanks the display to save power. So you can't pull the phone out of your pocket and look at the clock because the screen is dark - you can light it back up again but that clears the clock screensaver!

    But if you press the camera button on bottom right then the clock lights itself up after a 5 second delay.
