If you're trying to view the Hotmail web interface, odds are that it's just putting too much of a load on the N900. The Gmail web interface is pretty slow too (although not nearly as bad as you are seeing). Probably the best solution would be to set up the E-mail app to connect to your Hotmail account (I think Hotmail supports POP3 access), and use that instead -- it makes things a lot quicker and easier.
If you're seeing this kind of lag in the E-mail app, then there is a more serious problem...

hi mate
Thanks for your reply.
Then i think the problem is serious because its the app i use which is part of the N900. Its called 'Email'
2 accounts its been slow on now. started on my Dads so he removed it then i put mine up on there and its slow on that too
Got any suggestions or a fix for this?
Thanks again

Open Modest and register new account...choose your country and Nokia Messaging, enter your email address and password...and there you go.

And, as Dzano noted, experimenting with an e-mail account from a different provider than Hotmail could prove useful. If that works, the likelihood is that there is a problem either with the Hotmail account setup, or with Hotmail's POP3 access. If the lag exists for any email account, something else is going on...

I'm not asking you to try with any other email provider. Use your existing Hotmail account and register it trough Nokia Messaging. It's much faster and it supports push email.

Could you perhaps advise me with the correct hotmail settings such as ports and POP3, SMTP so i can check it is all correct?

Thanks guys!
My email (hotmail) is very, very slow on the N900.
As soon as i bring up emails it takes about 40 minutes to load inbox then when i go into an email it takes another 10 or so minutes to load the actual email and sometimes doesnt even go into the email... it just displays the email for about 2 seconds then brings me back to inbox immediately. I'm wondering if anyone knows a fix for this issue?
Thank you.
