Windows 7: My Windows Live Mail will not connect with my hotmail account. I know I have the correct hotmail address and password. I have tried setting it up in WLM using the automatic setup and I have tried setting it up manually using the default settings and also using the pop-mail.outlook.com + smtp-mail.outlook.com and using 465 as the outgoing smtp as well as trying 587. When I try to connect to that hotmail account, it tries to connect then I get the Logon Screen asking for my email address and password. I type it in correctly, select OK, the logon fades away then immediately reappears and wanting me to logon again. I put my PW in again and it does the same thing. When I select Cancel, I get an error message saying: unable to send or receive because of an incorrect password. I know the password is correct (I've retype it 10 times). I've also installed the "update" that appeared when I opened WLM a short time ago.
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
