Since POPFile defaults to listening on port 110 it should not have any trouble classifying your incoming mail. However if you are using any additional email proxies with POPFile, such as certain anti-virus software, you may find it helps to use port 123 for communication between Windows Live Mail and POPFile. To make Windows Live Mail use port 123 click the **Advanced** tab and enter the new port value in the **Incoming Mail (POP3)** box(To make POPFile use port 123 use the POPFile User Interface's **Configuration** page to set the **POP3 Listening Port** to 123)
