But since Microsoft only provides access to such resources to Windows Live Hotmail Plus subscribers ... If you have such a subscription use the info provided by Hotmail to fill in the needed settings into Nokia's configuration dialogs. Pretty standard stuff. If you do not have such a subscription you could try http://mail.nokia.com (see if they give you access to Hotmail) or join GMail.com, they give you free POP3/IMAP access.
