To get WAY off the topic:
I'm trying to configure Microsoft Outlook to send and receive e-mails from my Hotmail account. I do pay for my Hotmail upgraded account, and therefore, according to their FAQ page, I should be able to use POP.
Various web searches have revealed that I should use http as the "type" of server when configuring Hotmail for Outlook. BUT, Outlook only has POP3 or IMAP as an incoming server-, and SMTP as outgoing server options. Also, Hotmail FAQ states that the default port should be 110, and doesn't specify incoming or outgoing. My guess is, they assume you're using Hotmail as the receiving addy. The Outlook default port settings are 95 for outgoing, and 143 for incoming.
Any thoughts (or better yet, solutions) would be appreciated.
Thanks
