Can I use Hotmail with Mail?

The title pretty much says it all, and if I can use Hotmail with it, how do I set up mail to do so? Thanks in advance.

How long have you had this Hotmail account?
Since I've never had a Hotmail account and never will, I'm not sure but I believe when Microslop made the subscription change which restricted accessing a free Hotmail account with any email client such as the Mail.app, existing free Hotmail accounts at the time the change was made were not affected.
If your Hotmail account was recently created, you must have a paid Hotmail account in order to access it with any email client.
Why bother with Microslop anyway?
You can get a free Gmail account, enable POP forwarding via the Gmail account preferences with webmail access which provides for accessing a Gmail account as a POP type account with the Mail.app.

Can I use hotmail with the Mail app?

I looked at the mail app, but didn't see hotmail in there. Can I use it on the touch after upgrading?

I had this question as well. i don't think MSN or Hotmail allows the enabling of pop mail. Therefore it cannot be used unless you subscribe it to a pop mail client. I just switched over to gmail to maike things easier. But would love to find out an answer to this question

Problem using Hotmail with Mail

I recently installed leopard and configured a hotmail account to use with mail, but the problem is that every time I open Mail, it downloads all the emails from the account, and even if I delete them or mark them as read, the next time I open mail, they'll show up again, and it's very annoying. Any solution other than deleting all the emails on the hotmail account??
Thanks

P.S. I just noticed another issue here: everytime I receive a message in my hotmail account, it shows up twice in Mail. The first problem is more important, but this one's annoying too..Any clue?

Can you use Exchange with Mail.app?

Hello,
I have attempted to search for this answer but have not found anything that really helped me. Can someone guide me to an url or resource to see if using Exchange on a Mack with Mail is possible?
Thanks so much!

Hi all;
For MS Exchange on Mac, you need to run IMAP4 on MS Exchange server to allow Mac users connect and download emails locally using Mail.app (copy from emails remain on server like Outlook).
For that do the following:
1. Enable IMAP4 service:
a. From Services (Local).
b. Microsoft Exchange IPAM4.
c. Change it to Automatic.
d. Start the service.
2. Enable IMAP4 in MS Exchange system:
a. Exchange System Manager.
b. First Organization.
c. Servers.
d. 'Server name'.
e. Protocols.
f. IMAP4.
g. Default IMAP4 Virtual Server.
h. Right click and Start.
3. Restart MS Exchange server.
On Mac client (Mail.app):
1. Add new account.
2. Email Address: [email protected]
3. Password: user's password.
4. Account Type: Exchange.
5. Incoming Mail Server: "MS Exchange server" IP or Full DNS name (i.e. Server.test.com).
6. User Name: [email protected]
7. Password: user's password.
8. Outlook Web Access Server: Same to Incoming Mail Server.
9. Outgoing Mail Server: Same to Incoming Mail Server.
10. Check "Use Authentication" and fill User and Password fields.
11. Check "Take Account Online" .
Note: Mac users have to join the windows domain

Can't use Hotmail/Live Mail

Ever since I reinstalled Safari, I can't check my mail.live.com account. It opens up the top message, but there's no way to click any of the other messages in my inbox. I tried looking for a setting or perhaps using the Tab key to select the messages individually with no success. Is this a known bug?

Same for me, and most Hotmail users I believe, there are various threads about it. There is a way to get it to work until Apple fixes the bug:
1. Go into Safari>Preferences>Advanced Tab>choose the show Develop in menu bar tickbox.
2. Go onto Hotmail> log in
3. Go into Develop (which should now be in your menu bar inbetween Bookmarks and Window.
4. Choose User Agent>Firefox 3.5.0 (Mac) or any other Firefox browser, which appears.
Or just use Firefox when you want to access Hotmail. Apple will have this sorted soon no doubt.

Help! Can't use Hotmail with Safari 1.3.2 (v312.6)

Hello,
I'm using a 2003 Mirrored Drive Doors Pwer Man G4 operating on Mac OS X (10.3.9). To get online, I use Safari 1.3.2 (v312.6).
The problem is that I can't send nor read any emails from my hotmail account, and my computer doesn't support my Yahoo account.
I've tried installing Firefox, but for some reason, clicking on the Firefox icon to start the program does absolutely nothing.
Anybody got any ideas how I can use email without having have to drive to my mother's everyday?
Thank you very much in advance.

There may be a current or more recent version of Opera browser
which may be supported in Panther 10.3.9; few new browsers are
available for the older OS X versions. And your older Safari is not
a practical tool, since most protocols and security concerns have
passed that older one by. You may have to read some of the sites
where official downloads come from, for specific support info.
You may be able to get a Mac version of Firefox 2.0.0.16 or so,
from here: http://mac.oldapps.com/firefox.php
If ones you try don't work, note the vintage of OS X you are using.
The older browsers are no longer seeing security updates, btw.
So, there may be some risks associated with older products.
Camino 1.6.x browser appears to support use in 10.3.9 & Later:
http://caminobrowser.org/ - not sure what your hotmail needs are.
There is GMail for email, for free. It works well enough.
Good luck & happy computing!

Using Hotmail with Mail?

Hi
is it possible to re-route Hotmail into the Mail program? I would prefer to do this than use an '@mac' address, but the Mail program is nicer to use . If this is possible, how would I go about doing this?
thanks
Josh

Thanks very much! The plug in was very helpful, however now a message pops up saying that i need to subscribe to hotmail. Fair enough, I followed the link but there doesn't seem to be anything extra i can subscribe to!!! I cannot buy any additional account bonuses.
However, windows is now running Live now so instead of hotmail. Could this possibly be part of the problem?
Any support would be great.
Thanks
Josh

Can you use IMAP with the ipads mail feature?

Can you use IMAP with the ipads mail feature?

Kappy,
Yes, our domain and email accounts are on a server that does accept IMAP. Also, our mac mini and imacs are all set up for IMAP. Buying an ipad will enable me to work from home during this winter.
Another ?: do you know if you can use text edit with the iPads mail feature? Reason being we have about 100 generic emails that all we have to do is change a few fields before sending out. Can this be integrated in without having to recreate all these messages?

Viewing folders using Hotmail in Mail?

I'm using Hotmail in Mail and can only see Inbox, Sent and Junk folders.
How do I see all my mailbox folders?
Thank you
(NB not sure if this is in the correct forum?).

I was trying to find something on it, but I cant get into the account anymore, I deleted my hotmail account after I signed up with Gmail.
~BUT, if it is the same, I would log onto Gmail, and then went to the Mail Settings, and they had a list of options of what you could push to your other email devices.
Hope its the same for hotmail!

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.

What email can be used on Apple Mail?

Can I use hotmail or googlemail on Apple Mail?

Hi.
Yes, you can use Gmail, just follow these steps.
Regarding Hotmail, you need to install a third-party mail plugin, httpmail, but it may not work with some recent Hotmail accounts.
Good Luck.

How can i update my old 2006 iMac Intel core 2 duo running 10.6.8 to OSX Lion so that I can sync using iCloud with my newer devices? Mountain Lion is not an option for my older model and Lion is no longer available at App store.

Call Apple's online store's telesales agents: 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753) or Customer Service and Sales Support at 1-800-676-2775. For Lion you'll get a redemptions code via e-mail and need to DL from the Mac Apple Store (requires SL 10.6.6+).

How do I back up Contacts on my iPhone 3 I got back in 2008? With MobileMe closing down, is there a way I export my Contacts info to my laptop. Alternately can I use iCloud with an iPhone this old?

How do I back up Contacts on my iPhone 3 I got back in 2008? With MobileMe closing down, is there a way Ican export my Contacts info to my laptop. Alternately can I use iCloud with an iPhone this old?

Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing calendar events and notes, or with the address book app used by Windows Mail called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only.
Before syncing contacts with an empty Windows Contacts address book, enter one contact in Windows Contacts. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data which you want to select. Syncing direct with Windows Contacts via the iTunes sync process is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.

Hi, i am having the same problem. this is what i have noticed.
I have 2 x imac's and 2 x macbook air's
i upgraded the 2 macbook air's and 1 of the imac's to Mountain Lion, all these have problems acessing sites that require you to login .
the one remaining imac is still running lion and works perfect.
i am using a dlink router with DD-WRT firmware, i tested teathering from my iphone and i can log into websites fine using the newly upgraded mac's.
It's not a wireless issue as my imac is using an ethernet connection.
is there a compatibility issue with some routers.

HELP!!!

Perhaps we could answer the question better if we knoe what functions were taking up the most time. Are you having to delete spam that slipped through the craks? Moving Mail to folders can be accomplished through mail rules.
