Hi, would appreciate any advise on how to download my msn.com emails to
Outlook.

I'm assuming in Outlook you go to:-

Tooks, Accounts, Add
In the Server tab, I don't know what to put as my incoming and outgoing mail
(POP3) and (SMTP)

and how do I know what my Server Port Numbers are (Outgoing mail (SMTP) and
(Incoming mail (POP3).

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Jane.
 
Hi Jane,

First of all, Outlook client only works for Premium/Paid Accounts of MSN as
MSN have stopped supporting free email accounts through these clients.
If it is a paid subscription, the MSN account could be configured either as
a POP3 account or an HTTP/Outlook Connector Account depending on your
subscription again.

For POP3 and HTTP access you could refer the following link for details-

Only possible if you pay for your MSN account.

I don't think MSN uses POP/SMTP. I beleive it uses HTTP as the account
type.
