I recently set up my mail service for my custom domain through domains.live.com. After configuring the account and sending some test emails through the outlook.com website, I attempted to configure the account through an email program on my computer. I am using the recommended settings for the client and am able to properly send emails but when I go to receive them, I am getting an error message about my password not being received by the pop server: "Sending of password did not succeed. Mail server pop3.live.com responded: POP3 server failed to process your request." I am assuming this is due to some bad configuration on my part with the pop server - be it my username or password.
The configuration details I am using are below:
Incoming settings:
username: *** Email address is removed for privacy *** (username I use to access outlook.com)
password: (password I use to log into outlook.com)
pop3 server: pop3.live.com
port: 995
security type: SSL/TLS
Authentication: Normal Password
Outgoing Settings:
SMTP Server: smtp.live.com
Port: 587
Security Type: STARTTLS
Authentication: Normal Password
Again, I can send email properly through both the web client as well as the desktop client I am using. However, I am only able to receive mail through the web client.
Is it an issue with the custom domain or something else?
Thanks,
Jeff

In order to delete my hotmail account I'm being told I have to cancel my billing service at billing.microsoft.com but I've never had a paid account or subscription. How can I successfully delete my account? Any help?
Can somebody please help me as I am getting desperate.
I got an e-mail from Microsoft saying that I will need to go and change my billing info as they cannot take my payment from my previous credit card. I know that is because I cancelled the card when it was stolen.
I logged in to hotmail and went to https://commerce.microsoft.com. I was not able to go to Payment options at all, I got to a screen where I was asked for the alternative e-mail to which to send a code. I asked for the code to be sent to my alternative e-mail address.
I have now got to a never ending loop where I have tried this at least 10 times and I never get past this point. I even tried to change to SMS notification to my phone, I got the code there and that also gets me to a never ending loop.
This morning I got an e-mail from Microsoft billing saying that my account will be suspeneded if I do not pay within 21 days.
How I can solve this? Is there any telephone number at all that I can call?
I am using Firefox running in XP. When I switch to IE I don't have a contact list at all-- just my e-mails in a normal reading pane. I have cleared my cache/cookies as per a previous answer given recently --to no avail.
When I attempt to run "Windows Live Mail" I get a message; "Windows Live Mail could not be started. Closing Windows Live Mail. Your calendar contains corrupt data that is forcing Windows Live mail to close. (0x8E5E03FF) Is there a solution to solve this problem?
