    Re: HOWTO: Send and Receive Hotmail through Evolution

    With Ubuntu 9.04 and Evolution 2.26.1 I found the following settings work with live.com emails.

    Go to Edit/Preferences and edit your email account.

    Identity tab
    Full name - enter your email address xxxxxxx@live.com
    Email address, ditto.

    Receiving Email tab
    Server Type: POP
    Server: pop3.live.com
    Security: SSL Encryption
    Authentication type: Password and remember password.

    Sending Email tab
    Server Type: SMTP
    Server: smtp.live.com
    Tick the box Server requires authentication
    Security: TLS encryption
    Authentication: PLAIN
    Username: xxxxxxx@live.com
    Tick the box remember password.

    Everything then seems to work fine.

    E: Directory '/var/log/apt/' missing

    is the message i get after trying the second step this /var/log/apt/ missing as been common as of late - running on easypeaze 1.5

    no other distro has given me this message other than this messege the netbook works out of the box fantastic

    Lightbulb [SOLVED] HOWTO: Send and Receive Hotmail through Evolution

    Go to Edit/Preferences and edit your email account or (Shift + Ctrl + S)

    Identity tab
    Full name - enter your Full Name
    Email address - enter your email address xxxxxxx@live.com

    Receiving Email tab
    Server Type: POP
    Server: pop3.live.com
    Security: SSL Encryption
    Authentication type: Password and remember password.

    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!

    Re: HOWTO: Send and Receive Hotmail through Evolution

    damn! this has pissed me off for the last time haha!

    every now and then when fetching mail it start fetching like 50 some-odd messages. All of which are already in my inbox. so then i have 'new/unread' messages, filed by date with everything else, all over my inbox. it just happened like 6 times these past two days!

    anyone have a fix for that?

    wow perfect, I've been playing around for an hour trying to find out how to input my password, putting the TLS/SSL encryption and port 587 and pressed Send/Receive and it prompted me for a password. Your the man!

    Hiya:

    I have followed all the amentioned steps, including the port 587 step, but every time I try to send mail, I get:

    Code:
    Error while Sending message.
    
    Could not connect to smtp.live.com: Connection timed out
    Is this related to Evolution? Or is it a connection-net problem? I also have a memory leak problem, could that have triggered this window?
