Windows Live Hotmail Wave 3 supports POP3 technology

In order to get their emails from Windows Live Hotmail accounts straight into a mail client, users will need to ensure that the right configuration is in place. In this context, there are certain settings that they will have to set manually into their mail software application on the PC or the mobile device (mobile phone).

First off, the POP server needs to be pop3.live.com (port 995), while the SMTP server is smtp.live.com (port 25). Users will have to provide their full Windows Live ID (username@hotmail.com), and then the password that they have associated with the account. They have to bear in mind the fact that the Windows Live Hotmail POP3 service must use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) both with the POP and SMTP connection, as well as take advantage of SMTP authentication. Thus, users will have to specify that POP SSL and Authentication are indeed required, with the same being valid for TLS/SSL.
