Is this normal behaviour? If so, this makes the built in email app pointless for me, because as I go though and check my mail I have to repeat myself by login into hotmail using a web browser and deleting again.
This is a limitation of Hotmail exposing the email as POP3 only. I'm assuming you have the option checked to leave email on server? this would work the same even under windows. If you want a single location for emails then you can download them to your N900 but then they aren't on the web page. Sounds like you are looking for an IMAP solution hence why Google is becoming so popular.
