Hello,
HotMail/Live.com works fine here.
Is this how you have it setup?
Hi,

Please support if facing this before.
Thank you

Well, I've not seen this before, but somehow I think it might be due to two live mail accounts & some confusion.
In Mail's Window menu>Connection Doctor, do any red dots show beside the servers?
I don't think so, because the windows live mail was configured after the Hotmail. first e-mail I tried to set up was Hotmail then G-mail then I have created the windows live just to try if its going to work or not and its working perfectly.
Sorry I did not get the third line in your last discussion! Would you clarify please
Hi,
It shows red dots on Hotmail & G-mail with a note detail; trying to log in to this SMTP failed. verify that the user name and password are correct. P.N. that the G-Mail is working send & receive but the hot mail not.
Also it shows the green dots on my hotmail and my gmail as the name of my mailbox when sated up on my apple mail.
Thanks
For Hotmail's outgoing server, do you have...
smtp.live.com
Username as your full eMail address... you.live.com
Port 995 SSL
Authentication = Password
Exactly as you described but my user name as my full e-mail address is,... me @hotmail.com. Still not working situation is as is, can send e-mails from the hotmail account but cant receive mails, also the sent items is not displayed in any of the sent folders in apple mail!
Highlight that account & try Rebuild from the Mailbox menu item.
Oh, is the incoming Server something like...
pop3.live.com
yes
its not accepting a rebuild, clicking on rebuild from mailbox but nothing has change.
And can you use these same credentials to login to Hotmail's WebMail in a browser?
yes I can
Whew, open Network Utility>Lookup tab & Lookup...
pop3.live.com
Do you get like this?
Lookup has started ...
; <<>> DiG 9.3.6-APPLE-P2 <<>> pop3.live.com
