1. Setting Up Live Mail To Mail App Windows 10

There are many different types of email accounts you can add to Outlook, including Office 365, Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud, and Exchange accounts.

Some third-party email providers, like Gmail, Yahoo, and iCloud, require you to change some settings on their websites before you can add these accounts to Outlook.

These steps are the same whether you're adding your first email account or additional email accounts to Outlook.

1. Select File > Add Account.
2. What you see next depends on your version of Outlook.
   For Outlook 2013 and Outlook 2010

   Enter your name, email address, and password, and click Next.
3. If prompted, enter your password again, then select OK > Finish to start using your email account in Outlook.

Outlook won't accept my password

If Outlook won’t accept your password and you know you’re using the password for your email account, you might have an email account that requires additional security.

Gmail, Yahoo, iCloud, Outlook.com, and AOL accounts all use two-factor authentication to help verify that you’re the person trying to access your email account.

To add your email account to Outlook, you’ll need an app password, also known as an application password. This is a different password than your regular email account password. One way you'll know you need an app password is if you see the following message: 2-factor authentication is set up for your account. Please sign in using your application password.

The steps to obtain an app password are different for each email provider. Select your provider in the drop-down for instructions.

Gmail does allow you to add your account to Outlook without setting up two-factor authentication and using an app password, but you must turn on a setting that allows 'less secure apps' to connect to your account.

   4. Enter the code you received and click NEXT.
   5. Click TURN ON to finish setting up 2-step verification.
   6. Return to the previous screen by clicking the left arrow at the top of the screen next to 2-Step Verification.
4. Under Password & sign-in method, select App passwords.
5. Enter your Google password and then select Sign in. At the bottom of the next screen, select Mail and Windows Computer from the drop-down lists, then select Generate.

Note: AOL and Verizon customers who need to update their account settings after AOL's recent change to their server settings should see the section Update your email settings in Outlook for Mac.

Setting up the POP SMTP settings for your live.com ID is not difficult but it does not use “default” settings so making this post to show you how to do it and give you the details of what the settings should be.

You can add that and many other email accounts to the Mail and Calendar apps to start sending and receiving email and creating and managing events.

Notes:

• Seeing a message that your account is out of date? You probably need to update your account settings. See Fixing an out-of-date account for more information.

Click Advanced and follow the steps in the next section to add your account.

Add an account using advanced setup

There are two ways you can access the Advanced setup options for your email account.

• Click Advanced setup if your automatic email setup fails in Step 3 above.
• Click Advanced setup from the Choose an account window in Step 2 above. The Advanced setup option is the last option on the list, and you may have to scroll to see it.
  You can choose an Exchange ActiveSync account or an Internet email account. Unless your administrator has instructed you to use Exchange ActiveSync, click Internet email.

Enter the following information in the Advanced setup window.

• Email address This is the name you'll see in the left pane of the Mail app.

• Account type Choose POP3 or IMAP4. Most email accounts use IMAP4. If you don't know which one to choose, contact your ISP.
• Outgoing (SMTP) email server You can get this information from your ISP or administrator. Usually, an outgoing email server address is in the format of mail.contoso.com or smtp.contoso.com.
• By default, all four checkboxes at the bottom of the window will be selected. Most email accounts don't require any changes to these options.

Your email provider can give you the settings you need to fill in the Advanced setup but you can also go to the POP and IMAP server name reference we've provided for the most popular email providers.

After you've entered the required information, click Sign in > Done.

Note: If you're adding an account other than Gmail, see Special instructions for other accounts.

Troubleshooting

If you're having problems setting up your account, try the following.

• If you upgraded to Windows 10, you will need to re-add your accounts to Mail for Windows 10.
• Make sure your email address and password are correct. Passwords are case-sensitive.
• If you see your most recent messages but no older messages, you probably need to change your email sync duration.
• If you see a message that your account is out-of-date, you probably need to either update your password, your incoming or outgoing servers, or your SSL settings. See Fixing an out-of-date account for more information.

If you want to remove an account, see Delete an email account from Mail and Calendar apps.
