Upon the assumption that you require the address of the HTTP
server, try

http://mail.services.live.com/DeltaS....0.0/sync.aspx

Re: How do i get my server information?

First, test that the account is accessible and functional by logging on the Hotmail interface in Internet Explorer with your
Windows Live ID username and pw.
http://mail.live.com

Open WLM, Remove the non functional account of the same Live ID and repeat the setup process(Tools/Accounts/Add/E-mail account)
- if prompted choose Http as the type of account. WLM will setup the server automatically.

Note: when setting up a new account, use the full username@xxxxxx
e.g. if your username is Saul then enter the appropriate
Saul@xxxxxx, Saul@xxxxxx, or Saul@xxxxxx

Note: If you registered a third party email address as a Live ID, it does not have a corresponding Hotmail account. I.e. it won't
setup in WLM, you have to set that account up with the settings for that third party email address. To determine those settings
contact or visit the web site of the site or company providing that email address.
