Connected Drive & Email help please

[Gail]

Can anyone help me with the settings so I can add my Outlook email account to my Connected Drive? I might not use it much but I'd like to get it working.

It all goes fine until it starts asking for servers and ports which all mean nowt to me!!

Ta.

I take it you are refering to the connected drive of the z4 ?

These are the most common settings BUT you should ONLY use the ones provided by your email provider.

Incoming server (POP3): mail.server.com | port 110 | No encrypted connection
But in it can also be mail.anotherserver.com | port 995 | encrypted connection: SSL

Outgoing server (SMTP): mail.server.com | port 587 | No encrypted connection
But in it can also be mail.anotherserver.com | port 465 | encrypted connection: SSL
Requires authentication with your username (your email) and password (provided by your email provider)

No it definitely doesn't want to play....I found the settings from my email provider but just keep getting "Error when connecting to incoming mail server (please check settings)"

I give up!!
