Archived post from May 6, 2016. Product: Windows Live Mail – no longer developed by its maker. Details may be out of date.

Question asked on May 6, 2016

We all received the notice ahead of time that Windows Live Mail 2009 - 2012 will no longer work with our Outlook.com email accounts. These include: MSN, Live, Hotmail and Outlook.

So the big question is this:  Will Windows Live Mail 2012 allow us to access our Hotmail etc. accounts using POP3 or IMAP settings? Since WLM 2012 allows us to configure POP3 and IMAP with our Gmail, ISP and other accounts, I really do not see why Live Mail would not work with Outlook.com accounts.

Thanks in advance. I have 21 people waiting for an MSVP to answer this accurately.
