The mail server is smtp-mail.outlook.com and port number 587, correct?

Searching for "Authorization failed (535 5.7.3 Authentication unsuccessful" turns up many hits, such as:
This is an existing account that "works", correct?
I actually set up a (free) GMail account specifically to send Orbi logs. Have never had a Hotmail account.
