Question:

mailman class SMTP property values for Hotmail

Apr 14 '14 at 07:04

Could someone please send me an example of using the mail and mailman ActiveX classes to send an email via Hotmail? Gmail works fine, its just Hotmail that is the problem. I need to know the mailman class properties in order to send email via Hotmail.

Thanks,

David


Answer

Google "hotmail smtp settings"...

Chilkat does not provide documentation for email providers. It really only makes sense for the email service provider themselves (such as GMail, Yahoo, Comcast, HotMail, etc.) to publish the settings for their SMTP/POP3/IMAP servers.


Answer

Try to use next values:

Host: smtp-mail.outlook.com
Port: 587 or 25
SSL = true
Login: your Email
Password: your password
