I have previously used Outlook 2003 on XP machine to access my Windows Live email (set up using Outlook Connector) without problems. Have a new machine (Windows 7 and Outlook 2007) and can?t get it to work. I get error ?An encrypted connection to your mail server is not available?. Looking at various forums, it looked like this used to be a common problem before Outlook Connector but I can?t see anything about the problem when using it.
I tried setting things up the hard way
Incoming mail server (POP3): pop3.live.com.
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.live.com .
My Server Requires Authentication: selected
Use Same Settings as My Incoming Mail Server: selected.
This server requires a secure connection: selected
Use the following type of encrypted connection: SSL
Incoming mail port: 995
Outgoing mail port 25
Test setting gives error ?Outlook cannot connect to your outgoing (SMTP) email server error 0x8004210B?
I?ve found old articles on this error but all the problems were supposedly fixed years ago.
If I save the setting anyway, incoming email works OK but I can?t send any email
I read somewhere that outgoing mail port 587 may work, but I get error ?your server does not support the connection type you specified? when I tried this
Anyone have any ideas
thanks
