Adding @live Account to iPhone

[BeK]

I am trying to add my @live account to the default mail app on my iPhone running iOS 8 but I keep getting a error telling me that my username and password are incorrect. The same credentials work when using them from a PC browser but for some reason iOS depicts them as incorrect.

I am using pop3.live.com as a Host Name for the Incoming Mail Server and smtp.live.com for the Outgoing. Can anyone offer any tips as to what may be wrong.
