Configure Icloud email on Window Live Mail

How do i set up Icloud email on desktop Window Live Mail? I got as far as incoming and outgoing imap.mail.me.com and smtp.mail.me.com and the ports, but then it says to download file, but it gets timed out. What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

You must have an app specific password. This requires either Apple's 2 Factor Authentication or 2 Step Verification.
