Global Joe, I've moved your post to the DAV Migration forum.
global joe:when I try to send a new email I get the following message;access to the account was denied,verify that your username and password are correct.Account:"hotmail",server "http://services.msn.com/svcs/hotmail/httpmail.asp"Protocol httpmail,server response:Forbidden port:o.secure [ssl]:No.server error:998.socket error:87 error numberox 800ccc33.
Based on the error message that you posted, you're still using DAV Protocol to send the e-mail which is why you're getting this error. I suggest that you recheck your configuration and make sure that your previous DAV settings are deleted. For more info on how to do this, please visit this link and check out Step 13.
