MSN email setup

Anyone know the settings for a msn.com email account. MSN's website stinks and I don't want to waste any more time searching.

Thanks

You can also do mobile.live.com and access it there. 🙂

Thank you DoShane. I subscribe to a MSN account and the pop3 information worked for my IPone.

Dohsane,
Thanks for all of your knowledge! You are correct, "@msn.com" accounts do not work properly. 😟
If you find a solution to this please post it! Thank you 🙂

Thanks for the advice. I did all that and everything set up nicely except for one minor detail. It downloaded 50 messages from 2004 rather than the most recent 50. Anyone else have this issue?

I set mine up using these setting and hotmail seems to work like a champ!

These settings don't work for my @msn.com email. Is this just the luck of the draw if you are able to get it to work?

Where do you go to upgrade to hotmail plus---do you have a link? I use msn premium now. Or would it just be easier to set up a Yahoo account?

Thank you. These directions were very easy to follow and I was able to create a Plus account and set it up on my iPhone in less than 10 minutes.
