In the Account Name field, enter your Verizon Online user name.

Enter your password in the Password field.

Follow the exact steps in these two pages of help from Verizon. This is a
long URL that begins with http and ends with =16777

Re: linking verizon account to window smail

That type of problem is usually caused by interference from a non-
compatible antivirus program. Which antivirus are you running?
As a minimum, email scanning in the antivirus must be turned off,
although that may not be sufficient to eliminate all bad effects.
In a worst case scenario, your antivirus may need to be uninstalled.

Email scanning in any antivirus must be disabled, for reasons
explained here:

If no improvement after disabling email scanning, consider upgrading
to Windows Live Mail, because it is less prone to suffering bad effects
from overly intrusive antivirus programs:
