    You have not correctly set up your mail account.
    Contact your ISP for help, or tell us who your use and we may be able to guide you.

    You posted with a Yahoo email address. Is that your only email
    address? US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access only,
    no POP access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but not webmail.
    There are two possible solutions:

    1. How did you access Yahoo mail before? If you are happy with
    webmail via your browser, you can continue to use that.

    2. Pay Yahoo to get their premium "Mail Plus" service:
    http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/mai...iew/index.html
    and use the special settings for that service:
