MSN POP server questions

Are you using the paid version of hotmail/livemail or whatever it is now called, or the free version?

If it is the free version I don't believe it is a POP account.

So is it working with the information you used? Are your receiving mail?

Have you checked with MSN or their site?

Have you enabled SSL on both the incoming and outgoing servers?

You may find in the preferences on your live mail account that you need to enable pop on there too, and define rules such as 'only receive new messages via pop' or something on the lines. I am only guessing here though.
Why not try setting it up on a computer email client too and see if that suffers the same issues?

I had a similar issue. First, check you mailbox settings to verify how many messages it is setup to show (I believe that 200 is maximum).

My experience is that the Ipod Touch does not display the most recent messages without deleting some of the older messages that it intially loads in. I suspect that the Ipod Touch may have a memory/storage limit that may be impacted by the size of the email and attachments (if any). Unfortunately, I know of no way to delete the older messages other than one at time using the edit function. You will have to delete the older messages from your mailbox and then delete them a second time from your trash bin (the messages will only be deleted from the Ipod not the email server unless you have set it up to do so--check your advanced mailbox settings).

Once you have deleted a number of older messages from both the mailbox and the trash bin, update your mailbox to load in the more recent messages. You may need to scroll to the bottom of your email messages to see if there is a prompt to receive the next group of messages. You may also have to go through this process of deleting older messages several times before you are able to load your most recent messages.
