Outlook.com Microsoft has announced a free email service in the style of Google's Gmail. If you already have Microsoft Hotmail, HTML mail service, and Live.com, but this seems different. Rather than duplicate, Outlook.com seems to be a new layer, ie a way to offer something new without forcing existing users. The official Microsoft blog we read:
"We believe it is time to reinvent the email. So today, we have introduced a test version of Outlook.com. We realized we had to take a bold step to break with the past and build a completely new service from scratch. You know the Outlook desktop application, one of the most popular in the world to read email and manage your calendar. And may you have used the Exchange Server Web application used by businesses. Now, in addition to a desktop application and other web companies, we are offering a service as personal email Outlook - Outlook.com. "
Microsoft has thought of everything and has gone beyond making sure the service is accessible not only from the web, also from each of the devices, including iPhone, iPod Touch and iPhone. So without further ado, let's see how we can access this new service from our device IOS.
As Outlook.com access from your iPhone or iPad via the web
Of course, the first option is to access through the web. For them only have to enter http://www.outlook.com , put your email address and password, and you'll be inside. As you can see in the image, the website is tailored for mobile devices. If you prefer to see the desktop version at the bottom you have a link to "PC site."
If you use the iPhone to access you might skip a warning that you must upgrade to the latest version of Safari. Ignore and click Continue.
As Outlook.com access on your iPhone or iPad with the Mail application
The web-version is not bad, but not ideal. It is best to set up the account in Mail. For them we will follow the following steps:
· Let's Settings.
· We went down to Mail, Contacts, Calendar.
· We click Add Account.
· Select Hotmail.
· Fill the fields with our e-mail address and password.
• Finally, select the data you want to synchronize.
That's it!, I have correctly configured. Using this system lose the specific functions that can implement Microsoft on the web, but can receive mail from a much more comfortable with the other accounts we have set.
Comment also is possible to configure the account Outlook.com as Exchange ActiveSync, just follow the same steps as above but choosing the Exchange button and using as m.hotmail.com server.
What do you think the new mail service from Microsoft? Has anyone tried it?
