HTTP mail Window Live

[Barnstoneworth]

When I try to send e-mail by clicking on a link I get this-
"Information About HTTP E-mail

Windows Mail no longer supports the HTTP servers used by Hotmail and other
web-based e-mail providers. Click the Back button to set up a different
e-mail account, or see other options for accessing your web-based e-mail."

I have downloaded Windows live hotmail but it does not change anything

I have downloaded Windows live hotmail but it does not change anything

Here is the trick that may be needed, to set up the Hotmail, Live etc
account in WM & WLM.


Start with a new account setup and use (e-mail address removed) for example.

Setup the account with the correct server, port and SSL settings, (below),
save it, ignore errors, then go back and enter the correct email address
and (e-mail address removed) or msn.com or live.com

Try the following settings for Hotmail or Live accounts?


POP server: pop3.live.com (Port 995)
POP SSL required? Yes
User name: Your Windows Live ID, for example (e-mail address removed)
Password: The password you usually use to sign in to Hotmail or Windows
Live
SMTP server: smtp.live.com (Port 25 or 587)
Authentication required? Yes (this matches your POP username and password)
TLS/SSL required? Yes
