Mail Server: smtp.live.com OR smtp-mail.outlook.com (Check the details from your email service)

We suggest you use an alternative email service such as Gmail or Mailgun.

Due to limitations with Outlook we cannot send email on your behalf using your normal Outlook password.
You can however use an App Password instead of your normal password. Follow these instructions to setup an App Password in your Outlook account: https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/account-billing/how-to-get-and-use-app-passwords-5896ed9b-4263-e681-128a-a6f2979a7944


Port: 587 or 25
Note: you must have two factor authentication setup in your Outlook account to create an App Password.


'''Set up'''
Once you have created an app password, copy and paste it into the password field, for example:

If the system fails to send a email, you might have 2-Step Authentication enabled in your Live account,
 
*Log into your Microsoft Live account, Go to Options > Account details (top of the list). You may be asked to sign in.
 
*After the account.live.com page has opened, select Security & Privacy, go to More Security Settings, scroll down and select Set up two-step verification.
 
*You'll have the option to confirm your identity via email, phone or the Microsoft account App. After you've completed this step, you'll need to use an app-specific password to log in via the Outlook App.
 
*Under Security & Privacy > More Security Settings, scroll down and select Create a new app password. Use the newly generated app password as your password for the outgoing email in Beds24.
