Re: No Live email alert

Try adding your account like this...

The first thing asked for when setting up a new email is the address, at this initial point you have to lie. I use xxxx@liveFAKE.com

After that, all info entered can be correct, so it goes like this:

Options > New Acct:

Email Address: xxx@liveFAKE.com
Password (use correct password)
> Next

Your Name: what you want receiver of email to see and can be anything
Acct Display Name: displayed on your device icon, can be whatever you want
> Next

Mail Server: POP3.live.com
User Name: USE CORRECT EMAIL ADDRESS
Password: Use correct password
> Next

Outgoing server: SMTP.live.com
check outgoing server requires authentication
> Next

send/receive schedule
> Done

Good Luck. If it works, hit the thanks. If not...
