How do I add a homail account to Leopard Mail?

Hi,
I have a Hotmail account (ending in @hotmail.co.uk) that I pay a subscription for. I'd like to add this account to Mail, where I already get my AOL mail. Does anyone know the mumbo jumbo I have to type in to set it up? I have no idea what POPs and IMAPS are, so if someone could give me the exact settings I'd be really grateful, as I can't seem to find the details on the Hotmail site.
Also, I'd like to be able to organise it so that my AOL and Hotmail arrive in separate folders, if that's possible.
By the way, has anyone had experience of using the new "stationery" that Leopard users can tart up their email with? Will the message arrive in one piece at the other end, esp with the (unfortunate) majority who use Outlook Express?
Thanks for your help
Mark

Doesn't look like Microsoft offers a way to get your e-mail via POP3 or IMAP, only through HTTP, sorry. Here is a quick article on how to configure your Mail to sort of work with it (http://email.about.com/cs/macosxmailtips/qt/et042503.htm). Also, each mail account you add adds a "sub-folder" under your inbox, one for each account. You can view all of the messages in all of your accounts by clicking on the one INBOX, or expand the INBOX to see the actual inbox for each account (AOL, Hotmail, Gmail, etc).

  • How do I add a Gmail account to my Mail program

    Hi
    Until now, I have only had @verizon.net email accounts. I now how a @gmail.com email account
    I don't know how to configure my Mail program so I can receive gmail to my computer, and not have to get it using a Browser.
    I have attended to configure, but it does not work: I get the following:
    For Incomgin Mail Server I use:
    mail.gmail.com
    I get this response:
    The POP server “mail.gmail.com” is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the “Incoming Mail Server” field. If it still doesn’t respond, the server might be temporarily unavailable.

    First off Gmail supports "imap" which will allow you to keep your computer Mail app, and gmail account in sync. I would suggest you setting gmail up for imap instead of POP.
    1. Open Mail go to preferences, select Accounts.
    2. In the account window in the left pane "Accounts" press the "+" button at the bottom to add a new account.
    3. An Account window will appear asking for information, select IMAP for account type, Description put what ever you wish such as "Gmail IMAP" or if you are going to have more that one accunt fro gmail the "User Gmail IMAP", Enter your Name, and your new Gmail address ex. "[email protected]".
    4. Enter the information for incoming mail. In the incoming mail server box type: imap.gmail.com, Your user name should appear in the User Name box automatically if it is incorrect the correct it, enter your password that you use to access the mail from the web with gmail. Then press Continue.
    If all the info is correct it will let you continue, as mail at that point actually goes out to that gmail server and attempts a login with that account and password, if it fails at this point then some info like your user name and password are incorrect. If it all goes well go to step 5.
    5. The next screen will be the Outgoing mail, in the Outgoing mail server: box type: smtp.gmail.com, select authentication and put in your username and password for that account like you did on the prev step. Then press continue. Mail will again go out to that server and attempt a log in to very the information. If all goes well then mail will come back with an account summary window, you can then press continue.
    That should do it, if it doesn't work post back.

  • How do I add my Hotmail account to my Mail app on my MacBook Pro so that it synchronize automatically ?

    Hi guys, I'm new to Mac. I know that you can add email accounts likeHotmail into your Mail app so that you can view, edit, modify, create and delete your emails and folders, etc. The questions I have are (1) can I see all the emails I have not just in the inbox but all the other folders as well just like if I was logging on to Hotmail via Internet Explorer ? (2) what happens if I read some emails, delete or move some emails, create new emails and send or save in draft, create or delete folders, etc in the Mail app on my MacBook Pro, will this synchronize and reflect the same on my Hotmail account if I was to logging via Internet Explorer ? How about the other way ? If so, how do I set it up on my MacBook Pro to do this automatically ?
    I know that this doesn't work with Hotmail accounts on my iPhone 4 via the Mail app. Everytime I read an email or delete an email on my Mail app, it does not synchronize or reflect the same on my live Hotmail account when I logging via Internet Explorer.
    Any help, guidance or advise would be appreciated. Thanks.

    Edit: never mind, I was using the wrong password

  • How do I add actual email accounts to home screen-not just HUB?

    How do I add actual email accounts to home screen-not just HUB? Can anyone give me the steps?

    Essentially the Hub area is a home screen dedicated to your communication. Tap on the lower left icon and each of your messaging sections has its own dedicated 'icon.' As JC mentioned, it is new and it may take a while to get used to it.. but once you do it really is a great way to deal with the unified messaging idea and it also allows you to break down what you are looking at very quickly. Just need to learn a few new tricks.  I've been on the Z for just over 3 months now and I could never go back...

  • How do I add a new mailbox to a mail account on iphone?

    How do I add a new mailbox to a mail account on iphone?

    One thing that might help out.
    To add a folder or a mailbox to your existing account, you need to add it on your computer.
    Now, this will work and reflect to the iphone if you are using an imap or exchange account.
    If you are using a pop account, you will not be able to add a folder to an account on the iphone.
    Hope this helps.

    The seller needs to follow this procedure:

    If she refuses, then as Tim suggested the iPhone is probably stolen. You'll need to contact your local police department and ask how to proceed.

    How do I add $ to my account without going to the store to to purchase a redeemable card?
    This question does not need a response from the iTunes Store. The only way to add to your balance in your iTunes Store account is with a prepaid card or gift certificate or, if you're in the US, you can set up PayPal as the payment method. The iTunes Store has no facility for doing a direct transfer of funds from a credit card or bank account, if that's what you where thinking about. You can, of course, purchase an iTunes card from the online Apple Store and it will be mailed to you.

  • How do I add my Facebook account to Adobe Revel?

    I noticed when I first signing in to Adobe Revel on the web interface (web page), there was an option to sign in using Facebook.
    My account is already fully migrated from Photoshop.com and I already had an Adobe ID.
    I can only access Adobe Revel with the web interface.
    I signed in to Adobe Revel with my Adobe ID on the web interface.
    I saw no option to connect to Facebook.
    I believe that using the option to sign in with Facebook may create an additional account.
    One free account is enough. I don't want an additional account.
    The question then is how can I add Facebook to Adobe Revel when I can only use the web interface?
    If this question cannot be answered at this time, please make a feature request for the design team.
    As it is apparently available in the Mac (iOS, etc.) app, the API is already there. An option would be placing an Adobe Revel application on the server (in the cloud) which would permit access to this and many other features until it they can be rolled out for other platforms and devices. With the app on the server, features could be set or limited based on the account type. If it has not already, the code could be rolled into a plug-in for Photoshop and other Adobe software for collaboration or other purposes online.

    This link should explain how you get your photos from Revel to Facebook:
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/5168216#5168216
    You can only put a group of photos on Facebook from Revel directly if you are on an iPhone or iPad, or a single photo if you use Mac. Other platforms must upload to Facebook from their device or computer.
