Where can I get POP/IMAP settings for Windows Live Domain emails
After a lot of googling, I found the correct settings. They have been tested to work on the native Android App.
Incoming Settings
Username: [email protected]
Password: password
Port: 995
Security: Enable SSL
Server: pop3.live.com
Outgoing Settings
Username: [email protected]
Password: password
Server: smtp.live.com
Port: 587
Security: Enable TLS
To setup a custom domain email using the new outlook.com interface, do the following:
- Go to Windows Live Domains and signup with your domain
- Verify your domain by changing the DNS entries
- Create a new email account on that domain
- Login to hotmail.com with that account.
- Upgrade to the new Outlook.com interface by going to options and clicking "Upgrade"
There are no IMAP settings available for hotmail/outlook/windows live domain emails.
In outlook 2013/Windows 8.1 I had to go to account settings->more settings->advanced and click uses encryption and set the encryption type to auto.
Exchange Active Sync is currently possible and IMAP is promised in the future (which as far as I can tell still hasn't arrived):
Outlook.com Exchange ActiveSync server address: m.hotmail.com
Outlook.com Exchange ActiveSync domain: (leave empty)
Outlook.com Exchange user name: Your full Outlook.com email address (not an alias)
Outlook.com Exchange ActiveSync password: Your Outlook.com password
Outlook.com Exchange ActiveSync TLS/SSL encryption required: yes
