MSN email as items arrive setting

[whatsinaname]

First thing, this phone is awesome. wow.
Ok, now on to my issue.

Has any one set up and msn account and set the windows live sync frequency to "as items arrive" and put in a start and stop time?

My msn account NEVER updates automatically. (shouldn't I get alert when new email arrives?) I used to have this problem with older versions of windows live, but I was hoping that wouldn't be the case with a brand new phone.

I have also set up an account with my work exchange server, it pushes no problem.

Any one else have hotmail or msn set up this way?

Thanks!
