Windows mail wont send

B

bhatzikian

The connection to the server has failed. Subject 'test', Account:
'pop3.live.com', Server: 'pop3.live.com', Protocol: SMTP, Port: 25,
Secure(SSL): No, Socket Error: 10013, Error Number: 0x800CCC0E


I use hotmail for everything but when i scan a document from my lexmark
printer to 'email' it pulls up windows mail and i get this error response.
Can anyone help me figure out which setting is wrong that is stopping windows
mail from sending?? OR...maybe i can set the lexmark to choose msn/hotmail
rather than windows mail? help pls

betty

Wrong SMTP port - s/b 587 . . . . . Tools - Accounts - Properties - Advanced
tab

Live.com Settings:

Server names and ports:
POP3 = pop3.live.com Port = 995
SMTP = smtp.live.com Port = 587

Checkboxes you need to check include:

Server Tab: "My server requires authentication" (Click "Settings" button
also and fill in "Log on Using" email address - *** but do NOT check the
checkboxes there . . . .)

Advanced Tab: BOTH outgoing and incoming - "This server requires a secure
connection (SSL)"

General Tab (if desired but generally recommended): "Include this account
when receiving mail or synchronizing"

Should work - if you get errors post the entire error message (cut-n-paste)
for further assistance.
