Some advice: Ditch Hotmail and get a real web account. GMail is free and works from just about anywhere and from anything. Microsoft no longer supports the free Hotmail accounts anyway - they want you to buy into the more sophisticated "Windows Live".

BTW, my Hotmail account works fine from Mac Mail although I rarely if ever, use it.

Regards.

My works just fine in Opera as I just checked and responded to those few emails that still go to that address.

If it doesn't work on any browser, regardless of OS, something bigger is the problem. Does it work on other computers (aside from your phone)?

Since you have acknowledged that this isn't a Mac specific problem, I'm going to suggest some options that are not OS specific.

Do you have any problems with your network connection? Can you use any other hotmail accounts on your machine? If you don't have any other accounts to try, I suggest setting up a "dummy" account and see if that one works.
