MSN and Mail on IMAC

[jkristof]

I am trying to get my MSN mail to work with my IMAC mail. I tried to set it up but it will not work. What should the imcoming sever be? What should the outgoing server be? Is it POP? I have the upgraded version of MSN mail so that is not the issue. Please help.

Is this is an email account you are getting with your internet, then call your ISP for how to set it up. If this is a free email you just signed up for on line, then there is a good chance that it is a web based HTTP mail, and if that is the case (which most of MSN/Hotmail is) then Apple's Mail app doesn't support HTTP email accounts. If you can still find it, there was once a plug-in called HTTPmail for Apple's Mail that would allow to check your MSN/Hotmail, but that was a couple of years ago that I last saw anything on it.
