I warn you that, by default, the POP protocol is disabled on Microsoft e-mail accounts. The substantial difference lies in the fact that, while with the POP configuration the messages are completely downloaded on the client without leaving a copy of them on the server, with the IMAP configuration this problem is avoided, being able to find your e-mail messages even by accessing from different clients ( therefore having the ability to synchronize mail on multiple devices). If your intent is to use a client on a PC to access Hotmail's e-mail, in the next chapters I will point out some software that can certainly be for you.īefore explaining which programs to use on your computer, it is important to indicate the configuration parameters, without which you will not be able to access the e-mail box and, therefore, synchronize the messages on the server.Īfter starting one of the software that I will report to you in the next chapters, when you need to add the e-mail account, you may be asked to enter the parameters IMAP / POP e SMTP, necessary to communicate with the server and receive or send e-mails.Īs for receiving emails, my advice is to use the protocol IMAP, compared to POP. Once this is done, press the button Log in and type l ' e-mail and Password associated with your Microsoft account.Īfter logging in, you will be automatically directed to the Outlook Webmail, through which you can manage your e-mail box directly from the browser. To do this, you will need any web browser - you can use Microsoft's built-in browser ( Internet Explorer o Microsoft Edge) or that of Apple ( Safari) or, in general, one of the many developed by third-party companies, such as Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox.Īfter starting the web browser, type the address in the navigation bar, located at the top and by Submit. The easiest way to access Microsoft's e-mail is to use the e-mail address provided Webmail. Once this is done, you can access the e-mail box simply from Webmail or using one of the many software or apps that perform the function of client for managing emails, which I will talk about in the next chapters. In this regard, if you do not remember your login details, I recommend that you consult my guide on how to recover a Microsoft account.
