POP3 & SMTP

Hello,
I'm trying to set up my Windows Email and when it comes to the POP3 &
SMTP I'm not quite sure what I need to put there in order to send and receive
emails from my windows. Could someone please help me with this I've tried
everything and nothing works. I don't see anywhere online for assistance with
this I'm not sure if you put microsoft.pop3.com & microsoft.smtp.com because
when I tried that it didn't work. I hope to get a response back from someone
here's another email address to forward your response to:
mznette2fine47@xxxxxx

Sincerely,

Re: POP3 & SMTP

Windows Mail can not access http accounts.
If you wish to access your Hotmail account like you did in Outlook Express,
you'll need to use the newer Windows Live Mail program.

However, you can now access Hotmail/Msn/Live accounts via POP3 (email is
downloaded
to your computer).

Windows Mail is coded to reject Hotmail addresses, but you can fool it by
entering a fake address (me@xxxxxx), then renaming it after the
account is set up (me@xxxxxx).

Re: POP3 & SMTP

Which account are you trying to set up in Windows Mail,
Verizon or Hotmail or something else? The server names depend on
who your mail service provider is.

Re: POP3 & SMTP

If you can't even bother to type in your own message/problem, you don't
deserve an answer.
If you are trying to set up a Yahoo account, SAY SO !!!
