Hey and welcome,
I would suggest using these servers for your outlook.com address:
IMAP Server: imap-mail.outlook.com User Name: your.address@outlook.com [ ] Port [ ] [x] Require SSL [x] OAuth2 SMTP Server: smtp-mail.outlook.com User Name: your.address@outlook.com [ ] Port [ ] [x] Require SSL
Also, if I remember correctly, a window will appear, asking you for permission to use your account with MailMate.
Good luck and best regards

@Benjamin: Thanks for the answer. I just want to add that some official instructions from Microsoft can be found here.
@manmeet: Note that MailMate is an IMAP email client. You cannot use POP3 servers as you tried in your settings. Thanks for trying out MailMate.
