    Hi guys,

    I've been trying to setup my @outlook.com email address, however, whenever I do so, it always sets it up as an "other" email address.
    By this I mean the icon is not the Windows Live/MSN icon as shown HERE, instead, it is setup with the Gmail "world" icon as shown HERE

    Somehow, I set up the @outlook email and the windows live/msn icon was the one assigned to my @outlook.com account on my 9900. This meant that emails were almost instant. Alas, I had to redo my phone due to battery life issues and slowness so i wiped my phone, now however, when ever I setup my @outlook.com email, the icon reverts back to the Gmail "world" icon for email, meaning emails take unto 15-20mins to arrive.

    I'd like to reiterate that I'm not fussed about what the icons look like, it's just that when the icon for @outlook was the windows live/msn orange icon, email arrived almost instantly to my blackberry.

    If anyone else knows how I can setup my @outlook.com account to arrive instantly on my 9900, I would be very pleased!

    Thanks

    Just want to verify something. Is the Hotmail icon shown in the Email Setup next to the account but showing the world icon on the home screen envelope? If I understood correctly, then I would like to know of a solution as well.
