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


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

To retrieve your MSN/Live/Hotmail with Windows Mail, you have
to access the POP3 server (mail is downloaded to your computer).

the required settings are here... try 587 for the Outgoing port...

With the newer Windows Live Mail, you can access the Hotmail/Live account
via DeltaSync (similar to OE - mail is kept on the server).

Why didn't you reply to your original thread?

Use the Configuration Settings on this page (for each account):
http://mailcall.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!CC9301187A51FE33!49799.entry

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.
