cacoe Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Anyone know what I'm supposed to use for pop settings on my iPhone? Does it support imap even? Shame if not but I'm willing to use pop either way. Thanks :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
techbeck Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 What are the POP/SMTP settings for an @outlook.com address? Is IMAP supported? Outlook.com accounts use Exchange ActiveSync as their default protocol. You can access messages and sync contacts using any modern web browser or a client that supports Exchange ActiveSync, such as Outlook 2013, earlier versions of Outlook with the Hotmail Connector add-in, and mobile apps on iOS, Windows Phone, and newer Android devices. According to Microsoft?s documentation, IMAP is not supported. Use of POP/SMTP is discouraged for @outlook.com addresses, but it will work if you set the servers to pop3.live.com and smtp.live.com, respectively. Note that you must sign in to the SMTP server to send mail. http://www.zdnet.com...faq-7000001967/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cacoe Posted August 2, 2012 Author Share Posted August 2, 2012 Thanks everyone! They didn't really make a point as to what settings to use as far as I could see on the new site anywhere :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
