Hi,

I'm running Windows 10.

I manually added an IMAP *** Email address is removed for privacy *** account to my WLM'12 using Outlook "official" settings:

Server name: imap-mail.outlook.com
Port: 993
Encryption method: SSL

All folders and messages downloaded just fine.  But at the attempt to send a message, I get this error:

The SMTP server returned an error.

Subject 'test'
Server Response: * OK Outlook.com IMAP4rev1 server version 17.4.0.0 ready (BAY452-IMAP373)
Server: 'imap-mail.outlook.com'
Windows Live Mail Error ID: 0x800CCC60
Protocol: SMTP
Port: 993
Secure(SSL): Yes

Please, I would appreciate an idea of how to overcome this.

Thank you.
