Technically, Hotmail setup was a single step and not a 3 step process as I mentioned in the beginning! Hurray! Setup of your Hotmail account on Windows Live Mail is complete… yes, that was it!įrom the confirmation screen, you can also choose to set this Hotmail account as the default in Windows Live Mail program. Leave the “Manually configure server settings for e-mail account” alone – make sure there is no checkmark in this box! Now move to the next screen. The display name can be your own name or anything you want. In the pop-up window, enter your Hotmail email address (the complete address), the password of your account and a display name.
