Vista - POP Server

I am trying to set up my email address through Windows Vista Mail. When it
asks the question of username etc and email to be used I am fine with that.
It then asks for my POP and smtp server. I don't know my POP and SMTP
server. I am with bigpond in Australia and don't know what I write in there.
If anyone can help me please email me on caitlyn333@hotmail.com.

Thank you
Caitlyn

BigPond uses the same server for both incoming and outgoing email:

mail.bigpond.com

Your username is your BigPond email address
Your password is the one you were given at signup.
