Sending Email tab
Server Type: SMTP
Server: smtp.live.com:587
Tick the box Server requires authentication
Security: TLS encryption
Authentication: PLAIN
Username:
xxxxxxx@live.com
Tick the box remember password.
Notice the port 587, it makes the difference with the TLS encryption.
Hope this helps everyone! :)

Thanks

Works like a charm (For those who can't find "Plain", just use "Login" on SMTP). "Plain" was no longer an option to select with the lastest version of Evolution
Re: HOWTO: Send and Receive Hotmail through Evolution
Hi there guys,
I have stupid problem. ;) My evolution is downloading like 7 times the same messages. So i have normally 2000 email on my mailbox but now in evolution shows 10000 just because it downloaded it few times. Is it possible to fix this somehow? Thanks a lot anyway.
Re: HOWTO: Send and Receive Hotmail through Evolution
Hi I've just started using 10.10 and i'm completely new to UNIX I'm having some problems with this HowTo. When I put the first step:
Code:
sudo apt-get update
into the terminal in runs through fine to 96%
then I get the message:
Code:
Media Change: Please insert the disc labelled
'Lubuntu 10.10 _Maverick Meerkat_ - i386 (20101010)'
in the drive ‘/cdrom/’ and press enter
This is confusing to me as I have never used Lubuntu shouldn't the update work automatically?
Any help or explanation would be appreciated.
Jez
Re: HOWTO: Send and Receive Hotmail through Evolution
Thanks excellent post even though i didn't read it all i found all necessary information and then some. I must say that in my case the only useful was that instead of plain username you need to insert username@hotmail.com and it worked.
