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!

  • Failed connection using hotmail in mail

    Hi, i recently changed my email address, my old one after downloading the neccessary package, worked well in Mail but the new one does not, i have removed all old accounts and it is completely empty but everytime i try to add the new account it appears to work but i cant send or receive mail because it says the connection failed and gives me the following message :Could not connect to 'httpmail Account'
    Access to Hotmail via Outlook and Outlook Express now requires a subscription. Please sign up at http://join.msn.com/general/Email.
    What does this mean? i have signed up for my new account and it works using hotmail.com so why wont it work in Mail? please help me soon!

    Hotmail does not allow you to get your mail via POP3 unless you have a paid subscription starting at $19.95 /year.
    The free version is only accessable via webmail UNLESS you use something like HTTPMail

  • 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.

  • USING HOTMAIL IN "Mail"?

    I was wondering if it was possible to use a free online internet account (like hotmail) but using the mac "mail" interface? When I tried to set up an account on "mail", i was asked confusing questions about what "server" my mail was on. Thanks in advance for any help, correct me if i am wrong.

    Hi golfromeo
    The trouble with many free mail providers, including Hotmail and Yahoo, is that they don't use the POP standard which would allow you to interface with client email programs such as Apple Mail. Both the paid Yahoo Plus, and the free GMail, both use POP, and their help pages will aid you in configuring Mail for their accounts.
    One way to work with Hotmail is to use MacFreePOPs. You have to have this utility running all the time, but it seems to work well for a couple of clients I've recommended it to.

  • Can I view iCloud using my old mail program?

    When I moved to iCloud, I assumed I would still be able to use my old mail program to view incoming mail.
    Is this possible?

  • 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?

  • Using Hotmail in Mail with Lion?

    I have a Hotmail account which I access via Safari/Google Chrome etc and have also set it up successfully via the Mail app on my iPhone and iPad.
    However, when i access it via Mail on my MacBook Pro (which uses Lion), the next time i access it via the internet browser it has moved hundreds of old mails to trash - does anybody know why this might be happening?
    Also, out of interest, is it possible to set up a new e-mail account with Apple and access it remotely via a browser (in the same way hotmail works)?
    Many thanks
    (NB: I have also posted this elsewhere as not sure I put it in the right forum, so apologies for the duplication).

    that worked but then i got an error "There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account “[email protected] ” or try again.
    The server error encountered was: The connection to the server “pop3” on port 110 timed out."
    also if i delete from mail will it delete on the server?- unlike my itouch-is there a way i can get emails to delete from the server if i delete them from my itouch?

  • 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.

  • 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

  • Using Hotmail on Mail?

    is it possible to access my hotmail account through mail? i.e. if i opened mail i could see my hotmail account or must i use the @mac address?

    Hello Josh
    Mail is a standard POP/IMAP client. It is not mandatory to have a .Mac address, .Mac provide IMAP connectivity, unlike hotmail.
    Hotmail uses a protocol specific to Microsoft, AFAIK, based on HTTP, that's why you can't use regular email clients to use it (though Entourage, obviously, provide Hotmail account compatibility).
    There is a plugin you can test and use if it works correctly, but this is a hack and unsupported by Apple : HTTPMail Plugin
    Good luck
    Why reward points ?

  • Using hotmail for mail

    i have been trying to use my hotmail for my mail account. i have downloaded the program but still having problems. when i try to send an email i get a message that says "cannot send message using the server services.msn.com". i have tried to change this but it still reverts back to it. any help would be appreciated.

    I think you need a Hotmail plug-in for it to work with Mail, try do a search in VersionTracker

  • How do I set up different folders in mail on my iPad using hotmail

    Tried to sort inbox with new folders, unable to do so.

    These two discussions state that you should set up the account as an Exchange account. Links to instructions are in the threads.

    I do not use hotmail so I'm not familiar with it. I can tell you that if there is no "New Mailbox" button that pops up at the bottom of the screen when you tap the "Edit" button at the top of the screen - when you are in that email account - my guess is that it is a POP email account and that's why you need one of these Exchange account workarounds.

  • Why can I not upload a pdf to attach to an e-mail using hotmail & Friefox?

    Creat PDF, attach 2 e-mail & send via hotmail/firefox. Get message " Files with errors will not be uploaded" a view option reveald "This file couldn't be added because it appears 2B empty (0 bytes)." Same happens when I re-send previously successfully pdf e-mails. Same attachment will upload and be successfully sent and received if I use entourage or safari. My problem seems to be only using hotmail/Firefox. What has changed stopping what I have successfully done on many previous occasions?

    If you are using Safari then you can't as Safari doesn't support the uploading of content, but there are a number of Facebook apps which you should be able to use to upload photos e.g. the 'official' Facebook app

  • I can view my free hotmail, but I can not take any action on the mail. I can't open or delete anything.

    The email screen is locked up. I can not activate any of the icons. I can not open, delete mail.
    I can not view folders. there is no reaction to the mouse.
    If I put the mouse over an icon the choices activate but nothing happens.

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    <b> To Enable SafeMode </b>
    *You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    If it works in Safe Mode and in normal mode with all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) disabled then try to find which extension is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
    Close and restart Firefox after each change via "Firefox > Exit" (Windows: Firefox/File > Exit; Mac: "Firefox > Quit Firefox"; Linux: "Firefox/File > Quit")

  • I cannot send from one specific BT Mail account but can access folders using IMAP.

    Thunderbird 31.3.0 on WIndows 8.1 64 bit.
    I have two email accounts configured into Thunderbird.
    Both are BT accounts and have identical configurations.
    IMAP is used for reading mail, SMTP for sending mail.
    On one I can read folders, delete emails from the Bulk Mail folder, fetch and send mail.
    On the other I seem to be able to do everything except send mail.
    I can read mail, delete SPAM, but for some reason not send emails.
    Both accounts are using "mail.btinternet.com" as the IMAP and SMTP server.
    I am using Thunderbird as a back up email client to deal with a very few messages which cause major problems with my main email client which is Windows Live Mail 2012. I have double checked and the mail server details are the same between the two and my WLM client can send emails to the same SMTP server on the same port as Thunderbird fails on.
    I know the password is correct because I can connect over IMAP and delete SPAM using Tbird.
    The only difference that I can see between the two accounts is that one is "@btinternet.com" and the other is "@talk21.com".
    The symptoms - I see the progress bar with "Connected to mail.btinternet.com..." and green all the way across.
    Some time later I get a separate warning saying "Login to server mail.btinternet.com failed".
    Because of the time delay I am assuming that the session has timed out.
    I am also assuming that if the credentials were wrong the rejection would have been immediate (although the delay may be to reduce the effectiveness of brute force attempts to guess the password).
    So I know that the IMAP credentials are O.K. - I can access the mailbox.
    I know that the SMTP credentials are O.K. - I can send mail from WLM using the same settings.
    Further confusion - I know that it worked in the past because I have a test message in my Sent mail from when I first set up Tbird.
    This is all very weird.
    Has anyone else seen something similar?
    Also, is there a debug option where I can trace the SMTP protocol when the email is being sent?
    Cheers
    LGC

    Update: - I sent two separate test messages and saved both the failing emails as Draft to retry after restarting Tbird.
    I've just noticed that they are both in a Drafts folder on my mail server.
    Not, however, the Drafts area for emails composed using the web mail client but under a separate Folders tree.
    I can't send the email with the web mail client, although I can forward it.
    So further proof that the IMAP side is working.
