When i try to connect by keying in my (e-mail address removed) and password,
initally it comes back with "an encrypted connection to your mail servicer is
not available". When i then do Unencrypted it comes back with error - asking
me to verify settings (which has the correct email address in it).
It then takes me to manual settings, but i dont know what thess should be.

Anyone have an answer? Thanks
 
so what was the solution? I am getting the same error message.

Are you using the outlook connector, http or pop3 to access the live server?
it sounds like you have the wrong options configured in the acct.

Are you also using Outlook 2007 and trying to connect to your Live Hotmail
account?
Are you using the Outlook Connector for this?
