this may work....

1.) open Windows Mail
2.) click on Tools
3.) click on Accounts
4.) select the account you want (assuming you've already set it up)
5.) click Properties
6.) select the Advanced tab
7.) verify that the Server Port Numbers (Outgoing -SMTP / Incoming - POP)
are correct (the same as Hotmails)

Hopefully, that will work...

You don't.

Hotmail support is no longer in Windows Mail.

Might try some of the third party programs like Hotpopper or whatever it was
called.
 
that sucks! Does that mean i can not get my msn email in my new windows
mail? how come?
How do I get my msn email then?
 
hotmail is no longer supported in WM.
you can use a FREE program called HotPop to retrieve your mail in WM.
make sure you get the FREE one.

So that you'll use Windows Live Mail Desktop and see the advertisements.
