ძიება მხარდაჭერაში

ნუ გაებმებით თაღლითების მახეში მხარდაჭერის საიტზე. აქ არასდროს მოგთხოვენ სატელეფონო ნომერზე დარეკვას, შეტყობინების გამოგზავნას ან პირადი მონაცემების გაზიარებას. გთხოვთ, გვაცნობოთ რამე საეჭვოს შემჩნევისას „დარღვევაზე მოხსენების“ მეშვეობით.

ვრცლად

ეს თემა დაარქივებულია. დასვით ახალი კითხვა, თუ დახმარება გესაჭიროებათ.

I am not able to add hotmail account to thunderbird. I have the latest thunderbird version I have turned on pop in hotmail pop settings as explained here: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1120891?fpa=1 In your hotmail/outlook account (web) go to settings (the "wheel" right above), click "options" and under Accounts go to POP and IMAP settings. Under POP select that apps and devices may use POP.

On this url you can enable pop: https://outlook.live.com/owa/?realm=outlook.com&path=/options/popandimap

I use the right settings but no luck adding the account: 

  IMAP server name imap-mail.outlook.com
   IMAP port 993
   IMAP encryption method TLS
   POP server name pop-mail.outlook.com
   POP port 995
   POP encryption method TLS
   SMTP server name smtp-mail.outlook.com
   SMTP port 587
   SMTP encryption method STARTTLS

Try these settings: incoming POP or IMAP server: outlook.office365.com port: 995 (POP) or 993 (IMAP) Connection security: SSL/TLS Authentication: normal password User name: email address

outgoing SMTP server: smtp.office365.com port: 587 Connection security: STARTTLS Authentication: normal password User name: email address

If you have 2-step verification for the account, an app password should be used.

My problem is exactly the same BUT I am trying to use IMAP settings

I have ensured email address and password are accurate by using same settings to login via Outlook website.

Does my enquiry belong in this thread please?

Does it work if you enter the office365 servers mentioned in my previous reply?

It's not necessary to have an Office365 subscription. Those office365 settings have worked fine with my free Hotmail account for at least a year, and I don't even have any MS Office applications or Outlook installed.

Be sure to also check your account in case two-step verification is enabled, as that would cause the error you see if an app password was required.
