Sieghard, I use yahoo mail and it works great as far as the sync process. I use the mobile site on my computer, and my contacts, calendar and mail all sync back and forth from the phone to the computer. The only problem is that the yahoo account is an ATT account, and you brought up a good point. If I ever change internet providers, I will need a new account. I guess I could create a plain yahoo account. Is the outlook account totally accessible with voice over and jaws, contacts, mail, and calendar?
