Default Outlook 2003, MAPI, Hotmail, Outlook Connector blocks changing port from 25 to 587 for sending mail

Verizon sent me an e-mail saying to change Outlook to port 587 for sending
mail, but when I try to adjust the settings in Outlook 2003 for a Hotmail
Account, I just get the Username/Password prompt from Outlook Connector and
it won't let me advance to more settings. I was able to change it for a
Verizon Account no problem.


Of course you can't change it for the Hotmail account. Verizon's information
was for a POP account using their service, not Hotmail's.
