What is the smtp mail server for hotmail

The SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) mail server for Hotmail (now known as Outlook.com) is:

• smtp-mail.outlook.com for outgoing mail (SMTP)

Note that you may need to use a different SMTP server depending on your location and the type of account you have. Here are some additional details:

• For Outlook.com accounts, you can use smtp-mail.outlook.com as the SMTP server.
• For Hotmail accounts, you can use smtp.hotmail.com as the SMTP server.
• For Live.com accounts, you can use smtp.live.com as the SMTP server.

When setting up your email client to use these SMTP servers, you'll need to provide the following information:

• SMTP server: smtp-mail.outlook.com (or smtp.hotmail.com or smtp.live.com)
• Port: 587 (or 25, but 587 is recommended)
• Username: Your Outlook.com, Hotmail, or Live.com email address
• Password: Your email account password

Keep in mind that you may need to enable less secure apps or allow apps to access your account in order to use these SMTP servers. Additionally, some email providers may block or limit the use of these SMTP servers due to security concerns.
