Windows Hotmail/ E-mail account?

[Bowa11]

I just added 2 email accounts to the phones e-mail app, one being AOL and the other HOTMAIL.

I noticed that the aol account shows all of my saved folders that I created and you can load the messages that have been moved to those folders, but in the hotmail account, it only shows the inbox, deleted, and sent folder.

Any way to get the hotmail account to show all of my other saved folders?
or anyone know why it is this way?

Or maybe just an easier solution would be if someone could recommend a good hotmail app that I can see/do everything with my hotmail email account.

Have you tried another email client, like K9Mail or MailDroid?

How are these services being accessed? POP/IMAP/other?

no, are they free? do they drain the battery? I have been trying other 3rd party apps like an alternate messaging app and it just drains my battery so I had to get rid of those.

AOL looks like its imap and Hotmail is pop3

I just tried K9 and got the samething.. It downloads all the folders for AOL and not for hotmail

Set up your hotmail using Exchange instead of Pop3.

I followed those instruction months ago and can see folders just fine with my MSN account.

I followed those instruction months ago and can see folders just fine with my MSN account.

I also have access to all my folders.....what I DON'T have access to is html content within the emails.

I tried this, too, on my DX and it didn't work. It said I already have that account set up and I never got to click on Exchange or anything like that. Should I delete my current account and try again?
