Hi all,

Recently, Windows Live Mail became stuck in some sort of of update loop with Hotmail's calendar, and I could not receive or send emails either. Frustrated, I checked Hotmail's account settings, and they did not show an advanced tab so I could check the pop3 settings. I deleted and then recreated the account, but Live Mail is not syncing with my custom-made online Hotmail folders like it did before.

My hotmail settings are below...

pop3.live.com (port 995)
smtp.live.com (port 25)

Both ports require secure connection (SSL)


Are these settings correct, or is there an automatic way to setup a Hotmail account in Live Mail so I can download messages from those custom folders?


Regards.
