Hello,

I have set up a custom domain on Outlook.com. I want to use Apple’s Mail.app with IMAP configuration, but without success so far. Here’s the error I get:

I get the same error when trying to configure IMAP on my iPhone, while Exchange ActiveSync works fine. Network Diagnostics says that it connects successfully to IMAP and SMTP servers, but it doesn’t sync any messages or folders. POP mail seems to work fine.

I followed the steps shown here on how to properly set up the email client and I double-checked to make sure I have entered everything correctly. Does this have something to do with the thing that I use a custom domain?

Thank you,
Gjorgji
Hi, anyone experience problem in setting up hotmail IMAP mailbox in Mail App Mac Lion.
It keeps saying login failed.

I tried on Mail App and Thunderbird but no luck with it. 

Then, I have created 2 new account @outlook.com and @hotmail.com and proven there is nothing wrong with the app or setting.
Can any of you suggest any possible cause of this ?

By the way, my old hotmail account has many folders and email since it is 14 years now.





I'm using IMAP to Google email account. IMAP has been working for months fine - but today not. 

I have a busy work day and now NO NEW MAIL since last night. I tried rebooting, changed Gmail password, no luck. 

When Outlook comes up,  it says "Last sync 8/8/2 at 6:25pm" (last night) and later shows "All folders are up to date" and "Connected to <Gmail account>." 

However the Gmail web-interface shows many new emails since 6pm yesterday. Outlook IMAP is not seeing them.

What steps do I try next? How do I get Outlook to see the new Gmail messages??
