Here’s a quick follow up to the 2.5 months old post about Exchange ActiveSync support in Hotmail. Microsoft is announcing today that EAS (Exchange ActiveSync) is fully functional and up and running in Hotmail as promised earlier this year:
EAS keeps everything in sync between your phone and Hotmail, so whatever you do on your phone, like delete an email, add an appointment, or update one of your contacts with a new number, will also be reflected on the web, and vice-versa.
Today, EAS is supported by over 300 million mobile devices worldwide, including some of the most popular Windows, Nokia, and Palm smartphones, as well as the iPhone and iPad.
Unfortunately not on Android devices yet.
Here’s how to setup EAS:
Field Setting Server / URL m.hotmail.com Username Enter full email address, for example: [email protected] Domain Leave this blank SSL Enable this Certificate Accept the SSL certificate when prompted Mail, Contacts, Calendar, Tasks All can be enabled
