Port number for hotmail

Hotmail is a web-based email service, and it doesn't use a specific port number for incoming or outgoing emails. Instead, it uses the standard ports for SMTP, POP3, and IMAP protocols.

Here are the default port numbers used by Hotmail:

However, it's worth noting that Hotmail (now Outlook.com) uses a proprietary protocol called "Exchange ActiveSync" for syncing emails, contacts, and calendar events. This protocol uses a different port number, which is typically port 443 (HTTPS) or port 5223 (XMPP).

If you're having trouble connecting to Hotmail using a specific port number, you may want to check with your internet service provider or network administrator to see if there are any firewall or network restrictions that need to be configured.
