Hi,

To be able to send message/s, try to check the outgoing mail server if it has the correct port number/s. To do so, see the steps below:

  1. Go to Windows Live Mail, and open Accounts tab > Properties > Advanced tab.
  2. On the box next to Incoming mail, enter 465, and make sure that the checkbox is ticked.
  3. On the box next to Outgoing mail, enter 995, and make sure that the checkbox is ticked.
  4. Click on Apply, and close the window.
  5. Try to send if it works. If not, go back to Outgoing Mail, and use port 993.

Let us know how it goes.

This did not work at all for me.  Did it work for anyone?
