I'm hoping that someone on here will be able to help as this is driving me Bananas!!!!!!!!!

I have just got a Samsung Galaxy S4 and want to use the stock email app (one that is pre-loaded on the phone) for my Hotmail account. Every time I try to set it up I either get a "cannot connect to the server" or "authentication failed" message. I have tried using the server settings found on every website imaginable for POP3 account, IMAP account and Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync, but still no joy. I know there is a app for Hotmail/Outlook but I don't think its very good (like most of the people who have reviewed it on the play store!!) I have set up my other email account (1&1 My Website) but no luck with Hotmail which I find strange with the size of this company!!
