Where has the mobile version of the hotmail/outlook gone? As it goes to the full website which I find to difficult to contol. I tried downloading the outlook app from google but get a authentication error which dont know what that means. Any help
I cannot access my hotmail account.  I have an Samsung, Android software phone.  I was forced to upgrade to the Outlook email service and I already changed my password and that did not work.  I am still getting the authentication error.  Any ideas would be helpful.  
Original Title: Outlook 2011 for Mac
I have three email accounts the gmail account works just fine but I can't get the bellsouth and att accounts to work in outlook.  When I try to send receive I keep getting an auth error.  I have deleted these accounts and re-installed them several times and they still don't work.  Is there something else I need to do?
I'm having this same problem of not being able to receive email via Outlook.  I've spent considerable time with my ISP and it appears the configurations are correct.  I've reviewed the threads and have followed these steps but I'm still getting the 5.7.1 authentication error.  My ISP indicates that the 2011 version is not supported by them so I'm stuck.  How can I resolve this problem. 

The incoming server works fine but the outgoing server does not.  I've followed my ISP's instructions including overriding the default port and manually including the specified number.  I've triple checked my entries more than I care to admit.

Would appeciate any guidance.

Thanks much.  John

I was trying to set up a password reset account for my website using your SMTP server and kept getting an authentication error.  After exhausting everything I could think of I changed my password to something much simpler and shorter and it started working. Here is the 25 character password I was trying to use:

(removed PII)

I'm not sure if there is a special character it didn't like or if it was the length but I could log into the account at hotmail.com just fine with it.

 

Can you tell me what the password restrictions are for SMTP authentication?
