Hello

I'm having a little bit of an issue setting up a hotmail account on a Nexus 5 phone. I've typed in the email address / password and the phone recognises the credentials / asks what to sync (email / contacts / calendar etc...) followed by downloading all of the emails. Unfortunately though, I cannot seem to send emails.

When checking the settings for the account (on the phone) you can see entries for "incoming settings" but there is seemingly nothing for "outgoing settings".

This is my girlfriends email account / phone so I've compared it to my Nexus 4 (Virgin media email account) which works fine and has options for "outgoing settings".

Anyone any ideas?

Thank you

Mike
 
I don't have any outgoing settings for my live account ? But email sends fine.

You sure your mobile network settings are correct? And have days etc.
