- Hotmail will try to automatically detect the settings for the account. Most email accounts from popular services such as Gmail are detected automatically. If it cannot automatically find the settings, it will present you an Advanced options page.
- Here you can enter your email and password, as well as your user name, incoming mail server, port number, and SSL options.
- You can also choose whether or not to leave emails on that server when Hotmail downloads them. Make sure to leave this box checked if you want to still access your emails from the other account.
