Setting up windows live account on mac mail?

Question

I was wondering if I could set up my windows live account on the mac mail on my MacBook, and if so, how?

Answer 1

You would have to log into your windows live mail and change the settings to allow POP3 or IMAP. I'm not certain which it supports.

After setting that up all you need are the correct server settings for windows livemail. The account settings of course are your email address and password.

Essentially it doesn't matter if you're on Linux, Windows, Unix(AIX,Solaris,*BSD) Mac, or an abacus. If your computer has a mail client. It definitely supports POP3 and likely supports IMAP mail protocols. Allowing you access to any mail server you have the credentials for.
