Click the "Forward your mail to another e-mail address" button then type the email address you want your Hotmail forwarded to (i.e. your GMail account). Click the Save button on the right and that should do it. It didn't give me any errors so I don't know why you're getting them.
thanks but I tried that and believe me you can no longer do it unless of course they are being selective which stinks if they are and I'm sure highly illegal. My account used to be set up to forward to Googlemail but literally in the last week or so that option has been removed! Curious, others are having the same problem so guess your just lucky! May cancel Hotmail as this is pants because I can't now check email to Hotmail on my iPhone - how crap is that! Thanks for your reply though!
