That is a great tip but did you checked that if your hotmail been able to sent emails. Because set up mine , no problems with receiving but when I try to send it fails.If you know the answer please write it down.
You might just need to go into your Preferences in Mail and click on the Hotmail Account you created then click on the Advanced Tab. Once in there you need to make sure that it is set to "Authentification/Password" and you can also check the "Use SSL" option. If that is not setup you just need to go and fill in that information and you should be setup.
Thanks a lot. Finally I have been able to use my mail with your precious tip and support. Great job.
Glad we could help! Be sure and pass us along to anyone else that might need help with any of their Mac problems.
