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.
