I was told by the Windows Phone people to post my question re: Outlook.com here. Both my phone (nokia 925 - AT&T) and computer (Dell XPS and Outlook 365) are new. I could not set up my email from Cox.net on my phone. I had a Microsoft account which I used
only to sync OneNote. It is now showing on my phone as a Hotmail account (named Hotmail) which is peopled with Contacts from a long time ago. I had to get help from a local AT&T store to set up the e-mail as 'Other Account' on my phone, after wiping out my
attempts by going back to factory settings. My e-mail is now either syncing or downloading direct (?) fine but there is no option to sync contacts and calendar from Outlook. Yesterday 2 things happened: My phone started having a lot more options than it did
when I bought it. And I read an article from PC World that said Outlook.com was now supporting imap accounts. One of the new options which popped up under Settings, was the option to add another account - Outlook.com, Exchange, Outlook 365. I was tempted to
try and set up an Outlook 365 account with the new settings of imap-mail.outllook com. But I was afraid to touch it especially since I was warned by the other Microsoft Forum that this was new and unfamiliar to many MS people. Can you help explain to me hos
to sync my Outlook 365 calendar and settings - and explain a little more the relationship between Outlook.com and my Cox.net email settings? Before yesterday my Outlook.com account read Outlook.com (******@cox.net).
Now it's just says Hotmail (which I never used).
