At last I hear you say but good things (well, POP3) come to those who wait and certainly for those who have an iPhone or Blackberry and want Hotmail :)

Here’s the deets and thanks to Sarah for the tipoff

POP SSL required? Yes
User name: Your Windows Live ID, for example yourname@hotmail.com
Password: The password you usually use to sign in to Hotmail or Windows Live
SMTP server: smtp.live.com (Port 25)  
Authentication required? Yes (this matches your POP username and password)
