I posted this as a link last night but here's nrgz post from the Raph xda manila 2.5 thread:
Here's a list of issues this ROM has.
1. Texting is weird and a pain. This is due to the new, stupid, built in htc messaging app Jataayu made for HTC. Unfortunately it's a necessary evil with Manila 2.5. Use the 'disable' cab found in this thread to disable it and use the built in WinMo pocket outlook to SMS.
2. Footprints doesnt work IN ANY custom ROMs. Why ? Because the footcam.exe file required for it to take "footprints pictures" is designed for the Leo and doesn't work on any other device. I made a workaround to open the existing camera and take a GPS photo that you could use in footprints, but you have to MANUALLY move that picture in the Footprints folder.
As far as I know, I'm the only guy to have this workaround in my ROM as I'm the one that came up with this "fix".
3. Shortcuts on the homescreen are strange and dont always work as intended. I blame the porting job on this one. I never had problems with them in my WVGA ROMs.
4. Ezinputsettings.exe cant be launched from the settings screen. Manila 2.5 is expecting ezinput 2.1 which is not present in this ROM. 1.5 is cooked in to stay compatible with the Fuze's keyboard. You can install your own Ezinput 2.1 if you want.
5. Weather animations are slow. Yes... they're slow on any 2.5 ROM. Why ? Manila 2.5 is designed to work okay on a 1 Ghz processor. We have half of that on our phones.
6. The settings of homebackground pictures is broken and is broken in WVGA ROMs as well. You can however still set one if you really play with it. (that didnt sound right, I know.. lol)
7. The transparent slider icons overlap sometimes. I know... it was my best effort at making one and *I* can live with it. If you can't.. use my "restore to stock" cabs.
It's from the Nov 4 version, I think. I think most of this applies to us, though SMS is great in the latest release.

Why? Dunno. The workaround for hotmail is setting it up as a pop account. The process is listed in Threefaces guide, in my sig.

Try setting it up through Start/Contacts. Havent tested it yet but I know trying to set ringtones through Touchflo wont take.
EDIT: Yup, just tested it and I think its touchflo. use start/contacts and you should be good.
KEYBOARD
Even after installing the EZ Input fix my Fn and Shift keys are gettin funky-and not in a good way, just a heads up.
