Fill in the form and check "Use Hotmail" to connect to the external Hotmail Messenger server instead of our internal server. If you don't know which server to use, try messenger.hotmail.com. Remember to include "@hotmail.com" in your user name. Choose Save to store your settings. To make the settings take effect, turn Messenger off then turn it back on again.
