Password: your mail box password
Display name: Your name exactly as you want it to appear to recipients when they receive email from you
Check the 'Manually configure server settings' option
4. Click Next.
5. 'Configure server settings' should appear. Fill out these options as follows:
Incoming server information :-
Server type: IMAP (recommended) or POP3 (either can be used here)
Server address: mail.<domain> - replace <domain> with your domain name, so for example mail.foo.com
Port: 143 (If using IMAP) or 110 (for POP3)
'Requires a secure connection (SSL)' should remain unchecked
Authenticate using: Clear text
Login user name: your full email address - eg foo@foo.com
Outgoing server information :-
Server address: mail.<domain> - replace <domain> with your domain name, so for example mail.foo.com
Port: 25 - however some ISPs do block port 25 for external mail services, so if you experience difficulties sending email then you should try port 587
'Requires a secure connection (SSL)' should remain unchecked
'Requires authentication' should be *checked*
6. Click Next. Windows Live Mail will display a 'Finished' message, connect to your mail box and download all email.
