Hotmail in iPhone 4

I decided to google for info to add my Hotmail account to my iPhone... Here is a step-by-step guide to set up your iPhone 4 for Hotmail. Some of the websites didn't show a method that work entirely on my phone, but below is the procedure that worked:

1) Settings > Add Account > Microsoft Exchange
2) Fill in the following fields:
Email: youremail@hotmail.com
Domain:
Username: youremail@hotmail.com (NOT your username)
Password: yourpassword
Description:

3) Click 'Next' on top right hand corner
4) For the field
Server: m.hotmail.com
Use SSL: On

5) I left the rest as it is.

So now I am able to check all my emails!

PS: Apparently there were 2 other methods before when Microsoft didn't allow Hotmail on iPhone4: the Izymail method and the POP3 method. You can try them if this does not work out for you.
