It depends on your ISP and whether or not they have webmail access. Mine has actually switched over to Windows Live rather than having their own servers to host email. Because of this, I have access to all my mail on any device I choose to set it up on. Best thing to do is check with your mail provider to see what options you have for accessing your mail.

Hi Kyler
Thanks for this. The URL you have given seems to only take me to messenger & or hotmail. I dont have a hotmail address.
There does not seem to be a way in to my Windows Live Mail Account with all my info etc.
Cheers

He's trying to access his POP or IMAP account through a web interface. This is only possible if the ISP has that option available. My ISP (strictly as an example only) used to have their own POP/SMTP servers. They also had the option of signing into a specific website to be able to access your email anywhere without having to configure another mail client on another machine. This is why he (the OP) would need to contact his ISP... to see if webmail is an option.

My ISP has since switched to Windows Live servers for their email hosting. That means I can sign in on the Hotmail website and get my mail exactly the same way I would with my Hotmail. However, if his ISP still hosts their own email, then that is not an option.
