Difference betw WinMail and WinLiveMail?

[Jerry Wang]

When I enter a hotmail account in the Windows Mail binded with my Vista
system(Home Version), it always show me a message that Windows Mail no
longer supports Hotmail account. It appears no error when I enter hotmail
acc in Windows Live Mail. What's the problem with it? I am lost now!!!

POP3 access to free Hotmail accounts has been available in Windows Mail
since March 2009.

Use the Configuration Settings on this page:

NB: Set Outgoing server (SMTP) to Port 587, not Port 25!

Windows Mail's new account wizard is hard-coded to reject (e-mail address removed)
and (e-mail address removed) addresses. When you enter your email address during setup,
use a dummy one (e.g., (e-mail address removed)). After you've finished, go back
and change the email address to the correct one.
