Setting up Hotmail email on LG KP500?

Question

I am attempting to set up my LG KP500 mobile phone to retrieve emails from my Hotmail account using the mailbox. I have attempted to set this up already but when I try to retrieve my emails I get an error message saying 'DNS lookup failed'. I have tried searching through forums and have found a multitude of users experiencing the same problems but the suggested steps haven't helped thus far. I'm wondering if anyone can help me?

According to the forums the error message 'DNS look up failed' means there is a problem with my Domain name. Below are a list of the settings the set-up process asks for and what I have entered under them.

Messaging > Settings > Email

Request reply Email - OFF
Retrieve interval - 15 minutes
Retrieve amount - 10
Include message in fwd - ON

The absolutely free reverse email lookup sites generally provide false information, they just want your email to send you spam. To get real information, money will have to be paid.



Also, stay away from shady reverse email lookup sites, most likely you won't get any information after you make the payment. Not to mention you won't get a report and you won't get an answer if you try to call for a refund. Stick with a reputable reverse phone lookup site like http://www.emailtracer.org that has been around since 1997.
