evolution mail

[Andrew Mathenge]

I tested this on my machine and I had to use the following settings for it
to work. Both send and recieve.

Receiving:

pop server = pop2.live.com
username = yourusername at hotmail.com
use secure connection = SSL Encryption
Authentication type = Password

Sending:

smtp server = smtp.live.com:587
Use secure connection = TLS Encryption
Authentication type = Login
username = yourusername at hotmail.com

Yes... the SMTP server port is 587 and I had to enter it exactly as above to
get this working.

Hope that helps.

Andrew.
