I can't set up me Windows Mail..CAN SOMEONE HELP?!?

hi,

trying to set up my windows mail
never got around to doing it since I first tried back in, like, '98, but I
am now.

I want to use either robertcurleyjacobs@xxxxxx or
robertcurleyjacobs@xxxxxx as my e-mail. I know how to fill in my own
password. Can you tell me on the e-mail server page is it POP3, IMAP or
HTTP? What is the Incoming mail server and the Outgoing? Please help

You have choices. Hotmail won't work with Windows Mail,
but you can upgrade to Windows Live Mail which does handle
Hotmail accounts:

Gmail can work with either Windows Mail or Windows Live Mail.
Use their Outlook Express setup instructions:
