Windows Live Mail

Hi, I am curious what my Live and AOL E-Mail incoming and outgoing server is. I put in the AOL website and the same for live. But I get an error meassage and saids cannot connect to server. Is this anything with Windows or did I just punch in the wrong information?

 

               Thank You

    for live mail you need to know the POP3 server name and the STMP server name. You cannot enter a web site in live mail to get your mail.

    You can get these from AOL.

    AS an example Im on comcast so my POP3 server name is mail.comcast.net and my STMP server is smtp.comcast.net 

    These are examples yours very well might be mail.aol.com or such.

    AOL Mail Settings
    The AOL email service is a web based system, designed for managing your AOL mailbox via HTTP IMAP access. Unlike Hotmail, you can use any email client to access your AOL mailbox, as long as it supports the IMAP protocol.
    • AOL Incoming Mail Server (IMAP) - imap.aol.com (port 143)
    • AOL Outgoing Mail Server - smtp.aol.com or use your local ISP SMTP mail server
