Hotmail smtp settings 2013

Here are the SMTP settings for Hotmail (now Outlook.com) in 2013:

SMTP Server:

• Server: smtp.outlook.com (or smtp.live.com for older accounts)
• Port: 587 (or 25 for older accounts)

Authentication:

• Username: Your full Hotmail email address (e.g., [email protected])
• Password: Your Hotmail account password

Encryption:

• TLS (Transport Layer Security) or SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption is required for secure connections.

Additional settings:

• Authentication method: Use the same username and password as your Hotmail account.
• Require TLS/SSL: Yes (to ensure a secure connection)
• Use the following authentication settings:
  • Use same settings as incoming mail server
  • Use same settings as outgoing mail server

Notes:

• If you're using an older version of Outlook or another email client, you may need to use the smtp.live.com server instead of smtp.outlook.com.
• Hotmail/Outlook.com has a limit on the number of emails you can send per day using their SMTP server. If you exceed this limit, you may need to upgrade to a paid account or use a different SMTP server.
• If you're having trouble sending emails using these settings, you may want to try using a different SMTP server or contacting your email provider for assistance.
