ICloud SMTP server not working on Windows Live

Question

I can use iCloud to read and send messages on my iPhones and using the web interface in Safari but it doesn't seem to work with Windows Live Mail. 
I'm using the following settings:
IMAP (Incoming Mail Server) information:
Server name: imap.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
Port: 993
Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
Password: Your iCloud password
  SMTP (outgoing mail server) information: 
Server name: smtp.mail.me.com
SSL Required: Yes
Port: 587
SMTP Authentication Required: Yes
Username: [email protected] (use your @me.com address from your iCloud account)
Password: Your iCloud password
I can read messages in Windows Live but I can't send.  I get an error and if I click "Send/Receive", I get a window that pops up with my account username and password.  When I retype that it just keeps popping up until I hit cancel.  It's like the server is not responding at all. 
Please help.

Answer 1

Click on “Settings”
Choose “Accounts & Sync”
Select “Add Acount”
You’ll be presented with a list of Email accounts. Choose “Email”
Type in your email “[email protected]” and enter your iCloud password
I suggest changing your iCloud password to be the same as your iCloud email password. It just makes things easier
Under incoming settings enter the following
“imap.mail.me.com”
Port should be “993″
Security type “SSL/TLS”
Outgoing settings under SMTP server type in “smtp.me.com”
Under Port type in “587″
Security type, select “No”
“Require Sign-in”
Enter your iCloud username and password.
