Problems with Live email account

Has anyone had issues sending emails with the Motorola RAZR through a Live account? I can send them and you can read the subject line but none of the message comes through to my email receivers. I tried gmail and it works. I tried removing Live and reinstalling it with no luck. HELP!!

What are the server settings that you are using?

These incoming and outgoing setting have worked for me and should work for an msn address and a hotmail address.

Incoming settings:

Protocol: POP

Email address : yourname@live.com  (full email with domain name)

Username: yourname@live.com

Password: **********

Pop server:  pop3.live.com

Security Type:  SSL

Server Port:  995

Outgoing Settings:

Login Required: Yes or Checked on

Username:  yourname@live.com

Password:  ***********

SMTP server:  smtp.live.com

Security Type:  TLS

Server Port:  587

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
