I have noticed this and it seems that the E-mail provider must have made some changes to it's certificate. I suggest that you use the dedicated application for Hotmail available on Android Market/ Google play store.

@googlemail.com

that's the problem, you have to switch your @googlemail.com to @gmail.com

Change to Gmail from Google Mail

Google's email service changed its name to Gmail in the United Kingdom in 2010, and now we’re called Gmail in Germany too! From now on, anybody who signs up for a new Gmail account will get an @gmail.com address instead of @googlemail.com.

If you already use Google Mail and would prefer an @gmail.com address, you have the option to change to the matching @gmail.com username. If you make this address swap, it only affects your address; your account settings, contacts, and existing mail won't change, and any mail sent to your old @googlemail.com address will automatically be redirected to your new address.

If you would like to change your @googlemail.com address to @gmail.com, just click "switch to @gmail.com" in the "Accounts and Import" tab in your Gmail Settings (this link will only show up if you're eligible to change your address). Change your address now.

I have the same problem as the original post.

However, I use hotmail so the gmail issue doesn't apply.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

I still have the same problem on my Hotmail account. So problem not yet solved for me.

Agree this seems to be the best solution to the problem. Thanks for your help.
