MSN account on the Mail App.

I have a MSN/Hotmail email account and that is my main e-mail. When i tried to add in on my mail app it says secure connection failed and that my e-mail may not be valid (when it is). from there i click continue, and a window says that it can not get mail "user name or password for "pop3.live.com" is incorrect. i click OK. i click save under the POP setting and another window comes up that says this account may not be able to send or receive emails are you sure you want to save. I clicked no. and chose the IMAP. it thinks for a while then says IMAP account verification failed. The IMAP server "pop3.live.com" is not responding. check your network connection and that you are entered the correct information in the "incoming mail server" field. When my connection is fine and the correct info is entered.
HOW CAN I GET MY MSN/HOTMAIL ACCOUNT GOING ON THE MAIL APP??!!

The free version of Hotmail does not support POP or IMAP access, so you can't use the Mail app.
If you have a paid version that does support POP (I'm not sure if such a plan even exists), then I would recommend contacting MS's support people for your plan.

I have 2 gmail accounts on the mail app but only 1 is working

I have 2 gmail accounts on the mail app but only 1 of them are working. the default account isn't working and emails are coming from the other account.
They are both working on the iPad. How do I get the non working account back on my iPhone?

I get a message saying the server imap.gmail.com is not responding. Verify the correct account info in mail settings. ...it looks fine to me, how do I know what I need to fix?

I deleted 4 accounts and the mail app keeps trying to contact the old account server causing thousands of emails to be processed and causing my ISP to charge my account 20-30GB of data. Why is this happening and how do I stop this activity?

The "LocalAccount" is "On My Mac" and doesn't correspond to an account on a mail server. That all I can tell you from the information provided.

How can I set an outlook mail account to the mail app in mac

My outlook mail account doesn't work in the mail app, it keeps asking for my password everyday, and the outgoing mail server says "outlook.com (dissconected)".

I don't have Hotmail, but generally, web based email accounts need to be set up within that account (in this case Hotmail) - you need to go to your Hotmail account and check if it can be set up as an IMAP or POP account with emails automatically being forwarded to Mail. Hopefully someone with a Hotmail account will chime in with more specific info; in the meantime, check out the options in your account there.

How can I get my emails back into my hotmail account from the Mail app

Dear Apple support team
I started using the Mail app some weeks ago because I apparently needed it, to be able to open an invitation for an iCloud shared photo folder. As soon as I registered my email into the Mail app all my emails from my hotmail account where deleted from the hotmail server. I really hope that this is possible to revert because if not, it'd be a catastrophe for me. I use that account from several devices for work, and I need those old emails in the server to be able to work again!
I'd really appreciate any advice on this!
Many thanks,
Pier

You can use the iPhoto Export feature to do that. Furthermore, it's the best way if you want to keep the quality of the pictures.
To put the photos in the Pictures folder, first open iPhoto and then, select Edit menu (on the menu bar) > Select All. Finally, go to File menu > Export, and export your photos to the Pictures folder, so they will appear on all Time Machine backups you create since then

Default account in the mail app

iOS 7
How do you change what mail account iOS defaults to when opening the mail app. I have my default account set to yahoo but it defaults to my gmail inbox when I open the app.

Hi SubirMondal,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
You can tap the From field in the Mail app to send your email from a different email account:
Send a message from a different account. Tap the From field to choose an account.

Choose Mail sending default account in the Mail app.

There should be a option of choosing the mail account from which i need to send the mail everytime a send the mail and it prompts. its not like that i have to choose the default mail sending account in the settings before hand and then if i need to send the mail from a different account i need to go to settings to edit it. there should be a option of choosing it everytime i send the mail in the Mail app.

When I use gmail in my account in the mail app, how do I flag or "star" a message?

When I i use gmail in the Mail app, how do I flag or "star " a message?

This feature is not available with the iPhone's built in Mail app. You can access GMail via a browser to get this functionality. Personally, I prefer accessing my GMail with a browser on my iPad.

Can't view all of my accounts on the mail app

I have never had a problem with my mail app for the past six months, but now all of the sudden I am stuck on my Yahoo inbox and can't view my Gmail or hotmail accounts. When I click the inbox button on the top left it just takes me to the Yahoo account inbox and I used to be able to view all of my accounts.

Try a reset. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo.

Having trouble setting up email accounts in the mail app?

Hi Apple community,
I am having trouble setting up my email accounts with the osX mail application. I have two accounts, an outlook and my college email through google. When I try to add the outlook account the prompt says that it cannot connect to the server and when I try my college mail i get the following prompt.
"Trying to log in to the Exchange server “autodiscover-s.outlook.com” failed. Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."
Please note that my college account is run by gmail and ends in murraystate.edu
Thanks, Will.

Hey will,
okay for your college email. Heres what you do.
Try adding your email and wait for the message to come up
Trying to log in to the Exchange server “autodiscover-s.outlook.com” failed. Make sure the email address and password you entered are correct, then click Continue."
Once it does, you will notice 2 extra boxes One says username and the other password. You will notice that the username will not have @murraystate.edu
Add this and continue and this should now be added as an email account and should be able to receive emails as normal.
For your outlook emails, I would recommend using the following article to set it up. It is fairly straightforward.
