You can't "combine" both accounts, set them up separately at Tools
Menu>Accounts>Add.
You have been given the instructions for your Shaw account, follow the
instructions below for setting up your Hotmail account:

Here is the trick that may be needed, to set up the Hotmail, Live etc
account in WM & WLM.


Start with a new account setup and use (e-mail address removed) for example.

Setup the account with the correct server, port and SSL settings, (below),
save it, ignore errors, then go back and enter the correct email address
and (e-mail address removed) or msn.com or live.com

Try the following settings for Hotmail or Live accounts?


POP server: pop3.live.com (Port 995)
POP SSL required? Yes
User name: Your Windows Live ID, for example (e-mail address removed)
Password: The password you usually use to sign in to Hotmail or Windows
Live
SMTP server: smtp.live.com (Port 25 or 587)
Authentication required? Yes (this matches your POP username and password)
TLS/SSL required? Yes

What keeps popping up - the login? Try deleting the account and start from
scratch, you may have inadvertently corrupted it with multiple efforts to
set it up.
