The new outlook.com email ~ how to configure?..

I'm having this problem on my Galaxy S2 now, so frustrating!

I've configured incoming server settings using Doit2it's method above however it won't configure outgoing server settings. I have tried both SSL and TLS security (those are the only options I have).

With SSL I get a message "Setup could not finish - unable to connect to server"
and with TLS I get "Setup could not finish - Incorrect user name or password"

I had changed my password this morning when I logged in on the work's computer, then when I checked my phone a bit later on I got the "failed to sign in" error message when it was performing it's hourly sync.
So I entered my new password in the incoming server settings and it was fine, it retrieved my e-mails from the Hotmail server however it wouldn't let me reply or send a message.
So I entered the new password in the outgoing server settings and that's when it all went wrong, I got the "Setup could not finish - User name or password incorrect" message (even though I'd just successfully entered it into the incoming server settings!)
To try and resolve it I deleted the whole e-mail acount and then tried to re-add it, which proved to be the ultimate two fingured gesture from Microsoft.

Any ideas?
