+ How do I use SPAMfighter with Hotmail?

In order to have SPAMfighter filter your Hotmail emails, you need to have to receive your email in an email program like Outlook, Outlook Express, Windows Mail, Windows Live Mail or Thunderbird.
You can set up your email program to receive emails from your Hotmail account. Use the following settings in your email program to add your Hotmail to it.

Hotmail POP3 settings:
*POP server: pop3.live.com (Port 995)
*POP SSL required? Yes
*User name: Your Windows Live ID, for example yourname@hotmail.com
*Password: The password you usually use to sign in to Hotmail or Windows Live
*SMTP server: smtp.live.com (Port 25)
*Authentication required? Yes (this matches your POP username and password)
*TLS/SSL required? Yes
