To access Windows Live Hotmail emails on your iPhone, please try the following steps:-
1. Tap Settings > Mail > Add Account > Other
2. Enter Name, Hotmail Address (Your Live ID), Hotmail Password.You may get an error message saying that you will need to be a Windows Live Hotmail Plus Subscriber. If you see this message, please press "OK" to ignore the message. Pop3 service is not available for free for all Hotmail customers.
3. Click "Save". Your account will be automatically configured at this point without further action from you.
4. Now please go to the IPhone mail client and start downloading your pop3 messages. The first download from our pop3 servers could take up to 5 minutes for the first sync.
Thats it...
If for some reason the phone does not auto populate the server information, please use the following server settings:
- Pop3 Server: pop3.live.com (Port: 995)
- SMTP Server: smtp.live.com (Port: 25)
Advanced Settings:
- Incoming Uses SSL: On
- Outgoing Uses SSL: On
- Authentication: Password
- Delete from Server: When removed from inbox
