- If you're experiencing issues with authentication, try enabling "Less secure apps" in your Windows Live Mail account settings.
- Hibox also supports IMAP and POP3 protocols, so you can use these settings if you prefer.
By following these steps, you should be able to set up Hibox with your Windows Live Mail account and enjoy a seamless email experience.
