Problem sending hotmail/msn mail

[Starflyer]

Recently (about 2 days ago) I changed my passwords in my hotmail and msn mail accounts. Went through what I thought was the whole nine yards, including verifying.

I can now receive mail through both of these accounts (hotmail and msn), but I can't send any mail unless I use my gmail account server. The popup window I get says...



The Hotmail SMTP connection to server "smtp-mail.outlook.com " failed.

There is an option to "Edit SMTP server list" and also an option to access the "connection doctor".

I should add that I'm using an Apple Macbook Air if that makes any difference.

Anyone know how to correct this? I don't like to use the gmail outgoing server as replies are returned to gmail instead of my outlook account.

Hi Starflyer,

Your settings seem correct:

Did you remember to update the password saved in your mail program too?

If you have MFA enabled you may need to create a new app password.

Did sending after the change work and then break, or it broke when you changed your password?
