I run "Outlook Express" on Windows XP SP3 & need the name of the Microsoft POP3 Mail server to enable me to install my "[email protected]" e-mail account.

Original title : Name of the Microsoft POP3 Mail server to install my "[email protected]" e-mail account.

    I am trying to set up my live.co.uk account on a Lenovo S8-50 tablet and the above does not work (obviously substituting .com with .co.uk). The only thing different is that my option is SSL/TLS (not just SSL) but port is 995 so i can't think that is the problem.  

    I only get as far as the incoming server settings. I have changed the pop.live.co.uk to pop3.live.co.uk but get a message to say it cannot open the connection to the server.

    I have also tried changing the incoming server to mail.live.co.uk.  With mail.live.co.uk I get the message that it is trying to validate server settings.  After about 20 seconds i then again get a message to say it couldn't open the connection to the server.

    My BT Internet account set up automatically but my Live account is my main acccount so this is very frustrating!
