I read the response for this question asked a few days ago, and looked at
both articles. However, I am still unsuccessful in setting this up. What
are the correct settings for windows live in windows mail? Thank you...

This is the message I'm getting now: The connection to the server has
failed. Subject 'test', Account: 'pop3.live.com', Server: 'smtp.live.com',
Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25, Secure(SSL): Yes, Socket Error: 10013, Error
Number: 0x800CCC0E

Thanks. Really hope you can help me with this - quite frustrating...

Thanks for reporting back. For others having the same problem
with the smtp.live.com server, the recommended sending port is
587 rather than 25.
