Windows Live Mail FAQ

Outlook account setup won’t accept port 993 for incoming mail?

Trying to set up Outlook account in order to sync email between computers.  Currently using WLM on both machines.  ISP is Charter.net.  Charter requires that this be set up as if it is a mobile device (it otherwise won't give access to the smtp server).  Using their mobile setup requires that incoming mail port be set to 993.  That option is not available in the Outlook setup.  It does however fix the smtp problem, but creates this new one which I cannot change to 993 in the Outlook setup.  I really want to stay with MS, and don't want to be forced to use Gmail to do this.  Can this be done?

Also, when I upgrade to Win 8, will I still be able to use this Charter POP3 setup?  Thanks a bunch!
