Windows Live Mail and Verizon emails

I just purchased a new PC with Windows 7.  I want to get my Verizon email via Windows Live Mail.  I can receive emails, but I cannot send them.  Where do I find the outgoing email configuration settings in Windows 7?

You can find settings for any email client program by clicking the link below:

  • Windows Live Mail 2012 - Outgoing Email Times Out due to Lost Server Connection

    Using Windows Live Mail 2012 on WIN7 64-bit.
    Been receiving emails seemingly without issues, but...
    Haven't been able to POST any outgoing emails now since September 16th for any of my main/sub accounts.
    Indicator is a Norton Internet Security popup stating:
    "Email Error. Your email message was unable to be sent because the connection to your email server was interrupted. Please open your email client and resend the message from the Sent Messages folder." Then it lists the from/to/subj.
    I recompose and try to resend; same results.
    I've rolled WIN7 back to September 6th, but results are the same.
    I thought perhaps NIS was blocking the SMTP port, but same results when I turn off NIS and Antivirus. I don't see anything of significance in NIS's logs.
    Of course, Verizon's mini-app that sniffs out and corrects email problems does not know or care about Live Mail. Just Outlook and OE.
    Ideas? Things to try? Thanks.

    I noticed my email account server settings don't match what is defined on the FiOS email setup page on verizon.com.
    The server setting I have for my POP3 is "incoming.verizon.net" (not pop.verizon.net) and my SMTP server setting is "outgoing.verizon.net" (not smtp.verizon.net).
    Why don't these match? 
    Also, my port settings don't seem to match what's posted online.
    My outbound port is 25 (not 465) and my inbound port is 110 (not 995).
    Doesn't seem right to me, and I'm wondering what changed in the past week?
    The changes to pop/smtp from incoming/outgoing have been in the works for a while. Maybe Verizon finally go around to disabling the old servers?
    Either way, you should update to the latest settings.
    For the sake of example, we are going to pretend that we are setting up fictional account "[email protected]" and the password for logging into that account in webmail is "fakepassword" - Again, this is a fictitious account for the sake of an example.
    The settings for using Verizon's servers would be:
    Incoming Server: pop.verizon.net
    Server Requires Authentication: Yes
    Username: fakeacct
    Password: fakepassword
    Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): Yes
    Port: 995
    Outgoing Server: smtp.verizon.net
    Server Requires Authentication: Yes (You can set it to use the same settings as incoming, or manually enter the username and password.)
    Requires a Secure Connection (SSL): Yes
    Port: 465
    If you are given the option anywhere for Secure Password Authentication (SPA), set it to No or Normal

  • Windows live mail and yahoo and iphone 4s

    I have a business account with a yahoo.mail address. I rarely access this account through google etc so the most up to date contacts folders and emails are all accessed on my laptop through windows live mail.  I just go an iphone 4s and naturally when I set up my yahoo account it has gone in to the yahoo account and downloades 5000 emails from the past few years!!! I deleted the whole thing off my phone and then went in to my yahoo account and deleted all the emails but how do I transfer all my current information from windows live mail/yahoo account onto my phone and/or my yahoo account on the yahoo website.

    Google is a search engine, so I think you mean checking your Yahoo account via webmail access using a browser.
    Since a Windows Live Mail account is completely seperate from a Yahoo account, I'm not sure how you are accessing your Yahoo account with your Live Mail account. If Live Mail includes an option to link with your Yahoo account, deselect it.
    You can access your Yahoo account as an IMAP account with the iPhone's Mail app. When creating the account, select the Yahoo account preset and follow the prompts. The account will be created as a Yahoo account when using the Yahoo account preset. This provides push access for received messages, and over the air syncing for your Yahoo online contacts, calendar events, reminders, and notes.
    A Live Mail account can be accessed as an Exchange account with the iPhone's Mail app, which provides push access for received messages, and over the air syncing for your Live Mail online contacts and calendar events. You should be able to get instructions for doing so via Microsoft's Live Mail website - the help area, or do a Google search for accessing a Live Mail account as an Exchange account with the iPhone.

  • Windows Live Mail and BT Mail

  • Windows Live Mail and Mac Mail

    Hi,
    I have Windows Live Mail up and running nicely through Mac Mail (I have just switched from PC to Mac). However I'm wondering what's the right way to sync them fully. I mostly access email through Mac Mail now but whenever I need to access Hotmail through the web, all the msgs I have read or deleted earlier are still showing as unread.
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Helen

    I see no one else has answered so I’ll try to get the ball rolling and maybe others will chime in.
    First, I am not familiar with Windows Live Mail so I can’t guarantee to give directions to get you there from here but I’m sure there is a way.  Some Googling found these paths:
    A tutorial on the process (transferring mail and contacts):

  • Problems with setting up my ISP's mail server in Windows Live Mail and Thunderbird

    The laptop is a G60-535DX with Windows 7  64 bit. I've managed to setup my gmail account fine in Live Mail, but when setting  up my ISP' mail server, it doesn't work. I get the message that the information was entered correctly, and I see the 'connecting' at the bottom of the page, and then 'error', and clicking on it shows a socket error #10061. In Thunderbird, I get a timeout error message. I've entered all the incoming and outgoing server information correctly, (I've done this over 8-9 times now), the ports are the defaults(110,25), no SSL, no authentication. I've talked with my ISP several times. Just a couple of hours ago was the last time. Their only other possibilities were that Live Mail had problems with setting up more than one account, that Live Mail needed updating, that Windows 7 was a new operating system and there were 'kinks'. I removed the gmail account, set up the ISP's mail by itself; didn't help. I checked for Live Mail updates, but found out that they all come from Windows updates(which are current).  The folks on PCQ&A inform me that they have 3 or 4 accounts with Live Mail. I can get my mail, by logging onto my ISP's website, but that' kind of a nuisance. I posted this in Seven Forums and they didn't have any ideas. As I said, I also can't get my mail server to work in Thunderbird, either.  I don't know what else to try. (short of activating the recovery partition and starting from scratch). Any ideas would be more that welcome.
    Thanks,
    Steve

    Nevermind, it's fixed. One of the guys on PCQ&A suggested going to my ISP's website to see if they had a support page. They did and it stated that under certain circumstances that for the login ID the whole email address should be entered. For XP and Outlook Express one only uses the first part of the email address (your name); so just for grins I entered the whole address, name and all and everyting worked. Called my ISP and was told that that wasn't the way it's supposed to work. Well----
    Thanks anyway,

    Mine works the same way_must enter full email address as login. AT&T?

  • How can I get two lines mail list like Windows Live Mail and How can I get to, cc, bcc lines like Windows Live Mail?

    I wish to move Thunderbird. But i have two main problem.
    * I want two lines mail lis like Live Mail,
    * I want to, cc, bcc line like Live Mail. I mean when, I write an e-mail address I will key "," (or another character) then I will enter next email address. Auto address completion must work for each address which I enter the address line.
    Can i do those on Thunderbird?
    I searched on the internet and there are much people who want this features.
    Thanks..

    I see the dropdown menus for CC and BCC, but they don't work. I click on them and there is no response except the name I already had in the "TO" field disappears! The attached screenshots shows the name in the "to" field, then the result after choosing "add CC" - the "to" name disappears.

  • I've downloaded Firefox 4, now cannot access Windows Live Mail and have spent many hours trying to resolve including uninstalling, system restore etc etc

    I have a Sony Vaio Desktop (ie high spec) and have not had any software problems until I downloaded FF 4 and lost my WLM. I've tried so many ways to try to resolve this. The Sytem Restore is not working - ebven though I created a restore point for 4 May and disabled all the security settings etc.
    I can access my WLM account on my work PC - but note that the address list has gone.
    Really grateful for your help - thanks.

    Update:  I tried the "Toshiba Recovery Wizard" after everything else either fizzled out or hung up. After going all the way thru the recovery process (up to 100%), I finally got an error message.....it didn't work. And now, when I fire up the computer, I don't even get to that menu with the recovery options....the only thing I can boot into is the screens with the various ways to run your OS (in "safe mode", "safe mode with networking", etc).
    I'm not a techie, but I'm guessing at this point, the part of my hard drive that got damaged in the fall was, at the very least, the partition with the recovery data. Couple that with the fact that this cheapo Toshiba laptop didn't even come with recovery disk (or ANY kind of disk, even basic installation software!), I'm screwed: I don't see any way to get a workable computer now without some kind of disk to boot from. So NOW my concern is more about spending the $$ for a new OS and THEN finding out the hard drive has other problems too...is broken in some other way to boot.
    How to check this? As I said, I did run "chkdsk" back when I could get into the recovery menu and run the fix-it programs. It didn't note any problems. Thinking of taking this opportunity to upgrade to Windows 7 from Vista (which I never liked), but I have to know that the computer is otherwise ok....how to be sure? Help!!

  • Windows live mail 2102 and Verizon yahoo email

    Hello
    I have been using Windows live mail and Verizon yahoo together for over a year
    I use Windows mail since I do like the Verizon webmail feel and format
    These two program have worked fine for me until yesterday
    Today we try to access yahoo mail using  Windows  live I get a series of errors .
    These errors include
    1) timeout
    2) wrong password
      Last night at the recommendation of VZ tech support I deleted my Live account and created a new one for the same yahoo mail address.   This worked last night as all me server email were downloaded for Windows live.
    However this morning when I access Windows love I get the same errors ay yesterday and no new emails since last night
    I have deleted my anti virus program to see if this solved the problem , however this had no impact
    Per VZ tech support I am using the correct port setting, I have tried alternative port setting  with no luck
    I would appreciate any help in fixing this issue
    Thanks

    I have had the same experience.  The answer is to disconnect your verizon email from yahoo email and then to setup your email settings as described in a recent announcement from Verizon that was sent to users that do NOT use the Verizon Yahoo servers.
    Anthony_VZ provides instructions in the Verizon Community Forum - Verizon.net topic.   I was so disgusted by the time I wasted trying to get support to answer the simple question of what settings I should be using that I was ready to dump Verizon completely.  I was eventually sent to Verizon Premium Support that would answer the question for $14.99 per month with a commitment of 10 months.  I have no idea if the Verizon Yahoo ports are even compatible with Windows Live Mail any more or not (nomal support is not "trained in Windows Live Mail").  How they can make something as straightforward as providing email client settings for a common client so difficult is beyond me.
    As you can tell, I am very angry about the time I wasted on this.  Disconnect your Verizon email account from Yahoo and life will be better.  Good Luck.
