I have problems to connect to Windows Live Mail on the Hotmail account.

Connection window Live Mail Hotmail problems

I have problems to connect to Windows Live Mail on the Hotmail account.  I was wondering if anyone knows if this requires a paid subscription to Hotmail.  Microsoft does not explain this.
To configure the POP3/SMTP to Hotmail/MSN/Live.com access accounts in Windows Mail, use these settings:
Make sure that all of your settings agree thereby. If you get an error message, do a right click on your error message, copy, then paste it into an answer here. We cannot do a lot of troubleshooting without the full error message.
 
To give you a little history, Windows Mail does not support the HTTP messaging, which for a long time was the only authorized method of access for free Hotmail accounts. In addition, given that the development of Windows Mail was frozen in July 2006, there no knowledge that Microsoft has enabled POP access for free Hotmail/Live/MSN accounts in February 2009. Therefore, the Windows Mail Account Setup Wizard is hardcoded to reject the Hotmail and MSN addresses. To work around this limitation, when you enter your Hotmail/MSN email address, initially, use a fake domain, such as * address email is removed from the privacy *. After the account setup is complete, you can go back into the settings and correct your email address.

This is the mail of the window, it has been upgraded to manage Hotmail.  The error code indicates "connect to the mobile information server end." I came across this problem with Outlook Express similar years when Microsoft decided that Outlook cannot access Hotmail accounts on subscription.  Email client has no connection to Google problem.  Thank you

    I had this configuration for several years with no problems.
    Thank you.

    I don't think that the download is finished.

    1. Disable analysis in your e-mail anti-virus program.
    2. Uncheck the option to check for messages every X minutes.

    See if the download is finished now. If this is the case, leave analysis off e-mails, but check again the other option. If you still have questions, ask the experts here. More in this forum which I belong do not use Windows Live Mail.

  • Windows Live Mail freezes / crashes if I try to use the sections of then only connected to Windows Live Mail CONTACTS

    I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64. I use applications of windows live with the exception of 'family safety' (which is not currently installed).
    All applications work well except for Live Mail which freezes when I'm connected and click contacts.
    No problem sending, receipt or writing emails. No problem adding contacts to an email (even if I am connected to Live).
    Simply, it freezes when I'm connected and click on the option of the application contacts. Or if I am in touch and then sign in to Windows Live.

    I did a repair of all windows Live products. I also followed another troubleshooting tutorial and changed the name of the folder 'contacts' to allow Live Mail re - sync contacts when I signed up again. None of these worked.

    I would prefer not to have to re - install the app altogether if it can be avoided.

    Any help is very appreciated!

  • I have windows live mail with two email accounts comcast and hotmail all of a sudden all of my comcast Inbox mail appears in the hotmail account,.

    whenever I check that my windows live mail all the emails sent to my accont comcast also are appearing in my Inbox hotmail also.

    I don't know why. the comcast account is my account by default, all emails sent to hotmail stay in hot mail, but all emasils sent to comcast account also appear

    in hotmail too. How can I stop this. I thried to delete windows live mail a reinstall it thought that it worked but still past. does anyone have the answers.

    I'm ready to dump hotmail and windows live.

    The most plausible explanation for this is that you asked to Hotmail to collect messages from your Comcast mailbox. Connect to your Inbox Hotmail, pointing to the Inbox in the left column, click the gear and select get one email from another account. If your Comcast account is mentioned on the page that opens, delete it.

  • Whenever I have customize a folder in Windows Live Mail, the changes are applied to all files and not only that I specified.

    When I started using Windows Live Mail, I am sure that everything was OK. I have 4 email addresses and when I started ' Customize I'm went to SEE, COLUMNS and adjusted to the order of the columns and to check the column or not. If I'm creating the Inbox of course I want 'FROM' but not 'To' as it is me. If I'm creating for "SENT" I want 'TO' but not 'FROM' for similar reasons. My problem is that when I put in a category, it seems to apply to all categories. What I am doing wrong?

  • Problem with update for Windows Live Mail

    Who uses Windows Live Mail 2012 without problem for years, and then I did the update last week. Although it still shows my mail files, he will not show me the subfolders of these folders. I even uninstalled LIve Mail completely and reinstalled. Same stupid problem. Is it possible to simply uninstall the update and revert to the previous version? Everything is accessible through the browser e-mail access. If this cant get solved so I just uninstall Live Mail because it is now useless for me 99%. NICE WORK ON THE TESTING OF PRODUCTS.

    IF you do not use any Microsoft e-mail programs installed (hot mail, outlook.com, etc), Windows Live Mail 2011.  It is practically the same with a few differences that probably will be okay for you.  Good WLM2011 can actually make groups.

    WLM is part of any offer from Microsoft called Windows Live Essentials.  Probably you don't need many other parts and you can select the ones you want as part of the installation process.

    Download WLM2011 http://filehippo.com/download_windows_live_mail/

    Uninstall WLM2012

    Install WLM 2011

    It will not affect your data at all.

    At the time, it is possible Microsoft will get this right, but in the meantime, you do not have a victim of their screw - rises.

    Keep in mind that Microsoft don't like, you can use any e-mail program.  He prefers that you use their webmail programs so that it can send unlimited ads in your face that are selected for you based on the content of your mail.

    Tip: Set WLM to automatically delete the Inbox of server after n days.  Do the same for other e-mail providers.

  • Kept getting error when you try to connect to Windows Live Mail

    When I sign in windows live mail, I get this message... There was an error when you attempt to connect to the Windows Live Calendar service. If the error persists, check if there is an upgrade of Windows Live Mail available or communicate with the service. When I try to add an event or a calendar on windows live mail, it won't sync my hotmail calendar. Can someone tell me how to solve this problem.

    I had this happen to me last week and never knew why. What also happened in my region of the Eastern United States, is that I could not get into these forums either. It might be possible that Microsoft is the maintenance or upgrading their servers in your area. My problems resolved themselves after 10-12 hours or more and it led me to the 'edge of madness' trying to solve this problem, while it was happening.
