If you are using the Windows Live Mail email manager with the KartHost KloudEmail system and would like to set up POP3 (we recommend IMAP instead of POP3) here is the instructions.
Note: If your email address is set up in Exchange and are using KartHost KloudEmail Exchange, you can still use Windows Live Mail, just not with Exchange, but as either IMAP or POP with Windows Live Mail. Understand you will not be able to sync your Contacts, Calendar, Tasks and Notes in Windows Live Mail with Exchange. And using POP3 you will only be able to Sync the "Inbox" no other email folders on the KloudEmail server. Thus we recommend you use Outlook 2007. 2010 or 2013 with Exchange.
