I could get my Live emails back.I have tried allot to find an option or method to get the previous mails back but couldn't succeed.

Hi,
How did you upgrade Hotmail.com to Outlook.com? Please refer to the blog below to check if you did that in a proper way.

Since this forum is for general questions and feedback related to Outlook, better to post your questions to Outlook.com forum:

I WANT TO IMPORT MAIL FROM OUTLOOK TO TALKTALK
i want to direct mail from outlook to talktalk.
Do you mean Outlook, the application included with Microsoft Office, or Outlook Express, the application included with Windows XP, or Outlook.com, the new incarnation of Hotmail/Windows Live Mail?
Does talktalk have documentation on importing mail? Or on forwarding your old address to your new address?
I suspect Firefox is not at the center of the process in any case. -
Stops working when accessing hotmail account using outlook
When I try to access my hotmail account using Outlook, I get a message that Nightly has stopped working. I don't have to take any action after logging into the account for this to happen and it happens every time. I can use yahoo mail with no problem.

Could you try the site in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to bypass interference by extensions, disable hardware acceleration of graphics, disable the JavaScript compilers, and disable some custom settings. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using

In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset)
Any difference? -
I enter my hotmail account into outlook and I get the 'unable to verify account information'...why?
My email and password are correct. I can log in and check mail on the site but for some reason not in the app.
Any help is appreciated.I too had this problem.
I found the answer on another forum question: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25497825#25497825
If you have enabled Two-Step Verification, then you shoud go to following link:
https://account.live.com/Proofs/AppPassword
You will get password for any applications you want to add, just insert that password in place of your regular password and you are good to go. -
Button flash with hotmail or MS Outlook 2007
Hello
I make a html newsletter that I send by mail, In the html page there's a button flash made with flash CS4. When I send by email, and the receiver mail is hotmail or MS Outlook 2007, the button doesn't appears, there's no a message, nothing. I would like to know Why ?
The html code where I add the button is that:
<object classid="clsid:clsid:" height="31" width="57">
<param name="flashvars" value="url=html://www.mydomain.com" />
<param name="src" value="images/boletines/buttonflash.swf" /><embed height="31" width="57" src="images/boletines/botonmas.swf" flashvars="url=html://www.mydomain.com"></embed>
</object>
Thanks in advance !This might shed some light on your issue.

Can not receive Mac mail -error Outlook cannot find the server. Verify the server information is entered correctly in the Account Settings, and that your DNS settings in the Network pane of System Preferences are correct. Account name: "MacMail"
What are the correct mail account settings and more importantly the correct DNS settings
Thank you for any help you may be able to provide
Cheers
Chris (iMac i7)Do not delete the old account yet. sign up for an iCloud account if you haven't.
I understand .mac mail will still come through. Do not delete the old account yet.
You cannot use .mac or MobileMe as type of Account, you have to choose IMAP when setting up, otherwise Mail is hard coded to change imap.mail.me.com to mail.me.com & smtp.mail.me.com to smtp.me.com, no matter what you try to enter.
iCloud Mail setup, do not choose .mac or MobileMe as type, but choose IMAP...
On second step where it asks "Description", it has to be a unique name, but you can still use your email address.
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
Also, you must upgrade your password to meet the new criteria: 8 characters, including upper and lower case and numbers. If you have an older password that does not meet these criteria, when you try to setup mail on your mac, using all of the IMAP criteria listed above, it will still give a server error message. Go to http://appleid.apple.com then follow directions to change your password, then go back to setting up your mail using the IMAP instructions above.
Thanks to dpepper...

Cannot send mail from apple mail or outlook- HELP- tried everything on Google- nothing works!
Getting really disheartened after the thrill of getting a brand new iMac!
I cannot get my email to work on Apple Mail or Outlook (which I pay for) at all!
I can get the messages but not send any- and I have honestly tried EVERYTHING to get it to work- all port changes etcetc
Someone has mentioned you can change a smtp relay number which may be set to 0 as a default with Mac!
I have been a PC for years so I am not sure what to do here and there is no tutorial that makes any sense on google.
Someone please help me before I burst into flames!
This is a work account and not being able to send emails doesnt help me.
Ps- the email still works on old pc laptop and my android phone.
ThanksThe warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.

If I click on an e-mail address link in a web page instead of a blank message opening I always get a pop up screen with a log-in for googlemail. I do not have and do not want a googlemail account. I just want to be able to send e-mails using Outlook.
OUtlook was already set as the mail client for FF, and is my operating system (XP)'s default mail programme. therefore problem not solved at all. what I get whenever I follow a link in a webpage to send an e-mail is a little pop up window asking me to sign in to gmail or open an account. any other suggestions?

How to get All Mails from outlook

How can I read my incoming emails in one folder?Like I do in Live mail and Outlook express.
Now we can only read emails in different folders if I am managing multiple email accounts.
It does not feel so comfortable as we use Live mail and Outlook express.'''Unified Inbox for pop and Imap mail accounts:'''
If you use the Unified folder view, this will show an Inbox with all emails from all accounts, with sub folder Inboxes for the individual Inboxes for the various accounts. Then you can choose to view the collective Inbox or the individual Inbox.
This method can be chosen simply and quickly.
* View > folders > Unified
'''Setting up Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox.'''
Pop mail accounts can be set up to use a Global Inbox in Local Folders.
Imap mail accounts cannot be set up to use Global Inbox, but can use the Unified view.
To change Pop mail accounts to use Global Inbox, you would need to move all emails into Local Folders Inbox.
Then change the settings for each pop mail account.
Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the pop mail account
click on 'Advanced' button
select 'Inbox for a different account' and 'Global Inbox (Local Folders)
click on OK
You need to do this for each Pop mail account.
Then close Thunderbird. You must do this before downloading anything otherwise the emails may continue to go to the wrong Inbox.
Wait a few moments for Thunderbird to fully close and then restart Thunderbird.
Please read more info on global inbox here:

Can't send or receive mail from Outlook
just purchased a wireless router and hooked up recently. Can access the internet & outlook express but can't get my mail from outlook which is my main email account. Message says can't find exchange server. I can access Outlook from my laptop wirelessly at work but not at home.
Any suggestions?checked the ip address of the computer when its connected to the router using the command promt.(example.....ip address: 192.168.1.100; Default Gateway:192.168.1.1).
Open an internet browser (ie, mozilla, netscape,etc.). Type at the address bar the default gateway (192.168.1.1). and you will see a username and password promt for your router. Leave the username blank and use admin for your password, if it doesn't work use the password you setup the router to..
Once you see the setup page.... you'll be at basic setup sub tab under setup. Look for MTU. Set it to MANUAL and LOWER IT TO 1300. Save the settings. Check your outlook if its working....If its Does't work do this
Go to Applications and Gaming tab.
Look for a port triggering sub tab. type it this way
Application NameTrigger Port RangeIncoming Port Range
application triggered range forwarded range
E-mai l25 ~ 25 113 ~ 113
forwarded range is equevalent to incoming port rage...
hope this will solve your concern....
