Anyone know what the problem is with hotmail.com IMAP access being unable to connect?

Have a Windows Live Mail setup that's been reading mail just fine, but now suddenly can't send any.  

Whoops, now it won't read mail either.

AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Invalid username or password.

Configuration:
   Account: 1. Hotmail
   Server: imap-mail.outlook.com
   User name: example#hotmail.com
   Protocol: IMAP
   Port: 993
   Secure(SSL): 1
   Code: 800cccd1

Any clues?  Solutions?  Anyone else with the same problems?
