Note that I have never used Windows Live Mail and Google has loaded me with millions of hits that turn out to be Windows Mail as opposed to Windows Live Mail.
One of my jobs tomorrow is for a customer that is unable to send emails from Windows Live Mail but is able to receive. The job description also mentions unable to get an SSL connection but the last 3 weeks I have been working through this company has proven that the Help Desk is not able to give a decent description of what I am heading into.
I know I will get on site and see and error message that will give me the answer, but just in case it isn't that straight forward I'm looking for some advanced help.
Anyone have any experience with or links to supporting Windows Live Mail configuration or using problems?

Have you tried searching for "Windows Live Mail" in quotes along with whatever search terms you wish. For example, a search for <"Windows Live Mail" can receive cannot send"> seems to produce relevant hits.

This may be a bit late, but outside of an actual network issue such as a blocked port the connection details for live servers are;
Incoming Server: pop3.live.com
Outgoing Server: smtp.live.com
Incoming Port (POP3): 995
Outgoing Port (SMTP): 587
Make sure that "My outgoing server (SMTP) requires authentication" and "This server requires an encrypted conection" is ticked.
Encryption type: TLS

Thanks, found all this while on site. She had ports 110 and 25, turned out I needed port 465 for SMTP.

Just stand next to the refrigerator and ask your friend to open it as fast as he can... 
|
|
|
|

That would give just the inverse result...

You mean he will be flattened?!

So open the freezer, stand in front of it and get your mate to slam the door.
Honestly, do I have to think of everything?

Yep, I tried those steps, and they worked, but, there is always a but, the LAN devices (computers, tv's,...) were not capable to get Access to LAN computers shared networks and similar, only to Internet...

I've just tested it at home (the tests made where at my inlaws) and here it Works... 
I'll have to recheck it at their house...
In both emplacements I've connected the LINKSYS device into a switch that is connected to a router.
I'll try it again...
Thank you for your comments OG!

I liked the movie.
Really liked it.

Indeed. Danny Kaye plays Walter Mitty with comedic genius..

Well I was obviously looking at the new movie.
The old one might have been good too.

I can't stand Ben Stiller. He is not funny. Danny Kaye had real talent.

From what I can understand (via IMDB) they are quite different interpretations of the original story.

This one is not bad. Nothing remarkable happens throughout the moving,
There is no super-hero or great act of valor.
Yet it is a good story.
And I can identify it (to some extent) with our times.
