Windows Live Mail

[Tony McGuire]

Hi
I have tried to add Windows Live Mail to my Yahoo/Zimbra desktop without any luck no matter if I try using POP3 or Imap. Can anyone help me? Should I use the POP method or the Imap method and what are the other settings for INCOMING/OUTGOING mail?
Thanks in advance

According to the link below, there is no pop or imap access to live mail:

Dear Sam
Thanks for your reply. I have also read the link that you sent me.

The confusing thing is that if you go to Yahoo!,Zimbra,s Desktop Add new account and then actvate the drop down box (Account type) one of the 8 choices is 'Mibrosoft Live Hotmail'! that is what made me try it. I realise that Yahoo!,Zimbra,s Desktop is in the Beta stage so why then does it include Microsoft's Live Hotmail? Is Zimbra still working on this Beta programme?

Hi Sam,

IS there a solution to my Windows Livemail question? I'm going bananas as I really would like to add Hotmail to my Zimbra desk top.

Windows Live Account - You MUST first enable client access. This will only work with Microsoft Live Hotmail Plus accounts. Some free accounts that still support Outlook Express may also be used.
