Where can I get POP/IMAP settings for Windows Live Domain emails












9















I have setup email for my custom domain using Windows Live Domains. I then upgraded from the Hotmail interface to the new Outlook.com interface.



I cannot seem to find the POP/IMAP settings to connect to in the Settings Sections of the new Outlook.com interface. The only instructions I could find mentioned were using the Hotmail interface, and the corresponding section does not exist in the Outlook.com redesigned settings.

          Incoming Settings



          Username: username@domain.com
          Password: password
          Port: 995
          Security: Enable SSL
          Server: pop3.live.com


          Outgoing Settings



          Username: username@domain.com
          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:




          1. Go to Windows Live Domains and signup with your domain

          2. Verify your domain by changing the DNS entries

          3. Create a new email account on that domain

          4. Login to hotmail.com with that account.

          5. 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
