Question asked on Jan 20, 2016

Current setup:

01) Windows Live Mail
Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3564.1216)
Copyright © 2012 Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved.

Microsoft® Office 2010 Proofing Tools
© 2010 Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.

02) Windows 7 Starter (c) 2009 / Service Pack 1

03) Hotmail account

I have been using this setup for years and in mid-January-2016 it just stopped syncing.  I use three other accounts and only Hotmail does not sync.

I have deleted the account and re-installed it with no effect.  It's not a POP account, so the files remain on the Hotmail server.  The other three accounts are POP accounts.

Q1) Can you give me some suggestions what to try next?

Q2) On the off chance it's a Hotmail volume on server issue, what is the max?

Q3) If I need to install Hotmail as a POP account,  what servers should  I use?

Thank  you,

Casey
