How do you get stationery on hotmail?

I have not been able to get stationarey on my hotmail email account, because you have to have a toolbar. So I don't think there is a possible way to.The following instructions are provided for AOL users and others who have Internet Explorer on their computers and would like to use our stationery. Once you have the Hotmail account set up, Go to http://www.thundercloud.net/help/show-me.htm to see how to use the stationery.Ok let's get started. Click here if you already have a hotmail account and you want to set that up in your Outlook Express. If you want to see pictures to guide you through the entire process, Click here!The following explains how to get your free Hotmail Account!Outlook Express 6.0 users: If you are using new Internet Explorer/Outlook Express 6.0, you will have to go to Hotmail and obtain a free email account, and then click Here to set it up in your Outlook Express.Outlook Express 5 users:1. First you need to open your Outlook Express 5 mail program and click on 'tools' from the top toolbar and click new account signup "hotmail" (see picture here)2. Next you will be presented with a welcome screen (picture here) asking you if you would like to set up a Hotmail account. Click "next" to continue.3. The signup screen is next and it's self-explanatory. Here's a picture of the primary signup dialog window. The Wizard continues to walk you through the signup process. The next screen you will see is this one asking you for some addtional information (click here to see this picture).4. You're almost done now...just a couple more things to do. Hotmail gives you the option of allowing your email address to be pubished in its directory listings or keeping it off the listings (recommended). One way to get lots of spam is to allow your Hotmail listing to be pubished. If you like tons of garbage mail select "Yes", if not choose "No". See the graphic here.That's all there is to it . You will see your Hotmail account appear in the left panel of Outlook Express. Click on the Hotmail folder (when you're online) and it will tell you that you have not set up any folders, and ask if you would like to do that now. Say yes, and Outlook Express will add "Inbox" "Outbox" "Sent" and "Deleted" folders to your MSN Hotmail. You can check your hotmail as you would with any other mail account. You can set it to check periodically or only when you want to.For your convenience, we have made a page with pictures to guide you through each of the three steps.Note: Yahoo mail can be set up to send and receive in your Outlook Express also; refer to your Yahoo mail account for more information on this.


What are the Hotmail incoming outgoing settings for the iMac g5 mail program?

You have to use "Outlook connector", which is freely available at micrsoft web site to synchronize with hotmail unless you have a paid (a.k.a premium) account. If you do have a paid account its simple. Just put ur email adderss in the relevent field and outlook will take care of the rest. Or else use the following settings if you prefer to do it manually.Note that this works only if you have a paid hotmail account. otherwise you'll have to download outlook connector from Microsoft and follow the instructions that come along with it.In Outlook Express, on the Tools menu, click Accounts.Click Add, and then click Mail.Type your name, and then click Next.Type your full Windows Live Hotmail e-mail address, and then click Next.Enter the following information, and then click Next:In the My incoming mail server is a box, select POP3.In the Incoming mail (POP3, IMAP, or HTTP) server box, type pop3.live.com.In the Outgoing mail (SMTP) server box, type smtp.live.comType the account name and the password for your Windows Live Hotmail account. Clear the Remember password check box unless you're the only person with access to the computer. Make sure that the Log on using Secure Password Authentication (SPA) check box isn't selected.Click Next, and then click Finish.In the Internet Accounts window, on the Mail tab, click the Windows Live Hotmail account that you added, and then click Properties.On the Advanced tab, under Server Port Numbers, enter the following information, and then click OK:In the Incoming server (POP3) box, type 995.In the Outgoing server (SMTP) box, type 25.Under both Outgoing mail (SMTP) and Incoming mail (POP3), select the This server requires a secure connection (SSL) check boxes.Click Close.Note: It is no longer required that you have a paid account for this to work, Microsoft has opened up their POP and SMTP servers for use by free Hotmail account holders. So for the same reason, Outlook Connector is no longer needed either, just set up your free Hotmail account info as stated above. If port 25 has been blocked in your network or by your ISP, you can set SMTP port to 587 with TLS or SSL Encryption depending on the client in use (this is particularly helpful with newer smart phones).
