For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.I have an Ipod touch and an Xperia x8 android , on both of these I have set up email accounts using the same settings as on my laptop and pc that I have for my Orange account...........this works really well with one problem....
....if you get the new emails from one...say the .x8...then the others can't get them.....maybe if you left a copy on the server you could but I never do that.
I have a hotmail account on the laptop and if needs be I can forward anything important from the android into that.
I see no reason why you can't do the same on your IPhone....
There probably is a way to do this some other way but never looked into that.

you're using POP3 for the email (which means your emails are downloaded onto the first device that connects and then deleted from the server)
Use IMAP, which means the emails are left on the server and any device that connects to the server reads them directly from the server and they are left where they are so another device can read them later.

I'll describe what I'd do to get my orange account on another device to let you get your emails from either....
First get all the details from your account by opening windows Live Mail and then click accounts then properties...it's all there if you look under the various tabs.You could check the leave a copy on the server if you don't already
If the iPhone is like the iPod touch...then go..Settings..Mail..Add account..Other...Add mail account....then follow the instructions to fill in the details from the info you got previously...and choose never to delete from server...if you wish....
Best I can do...chuckf will give his ideas as well.....good luck...;-)
